TMC said in a statement that HHI is building these LNG vessels for Korea Line.

Each of the two LNG carriers will be equipped with HHI’s self-developed Hi-ALS air lubrication system.

TMC will supply its frequency-controlled marine compressors for use in combination with HHI’s air lubrication system.

The Oslo-based firm said its equipment would be manufactured in Scandinavia and shipped to HHI in Korea.
