Technip Energies developed a tandem LNG loading application, the ATOL, that is the technical answer allowing for a stern to bow separation distance up to 115 meters, for more severe sea states when side by side mooring can only be achieved in moderate environmental conditions.

The ATOL, designed for carriers equipped with the Bow Loading Skid, is an integrated solution with an articulated piping assembly and the solution is supported by proven technology, tests, components qualifications, and conceptual certification. This design delivers up 25 to 30 years life expectancy and low maintenance.
