Metal Solution
For LNGC, two types of cargo containment system are mainly produced : MarkⅢ and NO96. SAMWOO MCP manufactures key parts of the cargo containment system of both models in state-of-the-art facilities and secure an exclusive position as a reliable partner through perfect quality control system.
We have been participating in the research and development stage for additional types under development and are actively participating in efforts to preoccupy the market and expand the market.
Moreover, in the industry where low carbon and eco-friendliness are emphasized, we are constantly striving for research and development to efficiently reduce costs and improve competitiveness.

MARKIII
The Mark III membrane system is a containment and insulation system, directly supported by the vessel’s hull structure. It is composed of a primary corrugated stainless steel membrane, positioned on top of prefabricated insulation panels, including a complete secondary membrane made of composite material.
This modular system employs standard prefabricated components that can accommodate any shapes and capacities of tanks. They are designed for mass production techniques and easy assembly.
02.
NO96 TYPE
The primary and secondary membranes are made of Invar, a 36% nickel-steel alloy, 0.7mm thick. The primary membrane contains the LNG cargo, while the secondary membrane, identical to the primary, ensures a 100% redundancy in case of leakage. Each of the 500mm wide Invar strakes is continuously spread along the tank walls and is evenly supported by the primary and the secondary insulation layers.
With the approval of GTT, SAMWOO MCP manufactures and supplies all metal joint parts (e.g., coupler) for a cargo containment system.
03.
NO96 SUPER+ TYPE
In the case of the newly developed NO96 Super+ type of GTT, SAMWOO MCP joined the research and development project at the beginning and contributed to determining product specifications.
04.
NEXT1 type
The NEXT 1 membrane system, a new type of LNGC CCS under development, is made up of a fully redundant membrane and insulating system, directly supported by the ship’s inner hull. It includes two independent metallic membranes, both supported by a layer of insulating material.
The primary barrier, directly in contact with the cargo, is a corrugated stainless steel membrane, adapted from GTT’s Mark technologies, whereas the secondary barrier, achieving full redundancy of the tightness function, is a Fe-36% Ni alloy membrane. With the approval of GTT, SAMWOO MCP will manufacture and supply all metal joint parts for a cargo containment system.
