Construction Completion of 3 LNG Tanks (3 x 190.000m3) in France, Dunkerque

SMM concluded, last week, the mechanical erection of the biggest terminal of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) in Europe.

This project, in Dunkerque, north of France, which had the duration of 3 years, allowed the construction of three tanks of 190.000 m3 each.

In the construction of these cryogenic tanks, which store liquefied gas, steel alloy with 9% of nickel is used. SMM is considered the leading European player in erection this type of tanks which allows it to own a deep knowledge and extensive experience in welding high-alloy steel.

The participation in this project reinforces the European leading position of SMM on the erection of cryogenic tanks.
