We are pleased to share that our LNG transfer hoses have been certified by American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) for a design pressure of up to 21 bar, in full compliance with the latest edition of EN1474-II standards for LNG offshore transfer and bunkering hoses.
This certification follows an extensive testing program conducted by TNO (Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research) between 2022 and 2024, where our hoses underwent rigorous evaluations, including aging tests, high-fatigue load tests, and damage tolerance tests. Unlike previous testing in 2008, this round of testing was tailored to replicate real-world maritime operating conditions. The high-fatigue load testing delivered expectational results, continuing beyond 2.4 million cycles under both ambient and cryogenic conditions,
In the LNG industry, where operational efficiency and safety are critical, this certification ensures our hoses can deliver exceptional durability, withstand the most demanding conditions and sets a new benchmark for performance. It also reassures both our existing and new customers that they’re investing in a trusted, proven solution for LNG transfer and bunkering operations.
ABS has reviewed the complete documentation and issued the certification, reinforcing our position as a leader in LNG hose technology. This achievement highlights the exceptional quality, innovation, and reliability of our LNG transfer hoses.
