Due to increasing energy demand and need for clean energy, Kuwait embarked on constructing one of the world’s largest LNG storage & regasification projects. Different forms of Glass Fiber Reinforced composite piping and tanks were used in the construction of the LNGI facility. These include Glass Reinforced Epoxy (GRE) for all underground firewater network and Glass fiber Reinforced Vinyl ester GRV for chemical storage tanks and process lines such as seawater and chemical dosing lines.
