Vinci Construction Grands Projets has won a €160m contract to design and build a 180,000 cu m liquefied natural gas (LNG) tank in Rotterdam.

It will be part of the Gas-Access-To-Europe storage and regasification terminal designed to supply 4 billion cubic metres of gas each year.

Vinci said the tank will have a nickel steel inner liner and a post-tensioned concrete outer container.

The contract is scheduled for completion by the second half of 2026.

Between 2007 and 2011, Vinci Construction Grands Projets also built three 180,000-cu-m LNG storage tanks for this same client, each under design-build contracts.

The company has so far built around 15 LNG tanks around the world.
