Navantia Australia signs MoU with CBG Systems
Navantia Australia has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with CBG systems for insulation and fire protection supply for its bid for Australia’s Future Frigate project, the company announced on 11 April.
CBG designs, manufactures and installs a removable panelised structural fire protection system, which has been developed to sustain hydrocarbon fire and shock. The system consists of panels mounted below the deckhead allowing easy access to the vessel structure.
Under the MoU, CBG will also be responsible for the development of an insulation turn-key capability plan which will include a proposed approach to managing the skills and logistical requirements for insulation capability - the supply and storage of the material; the location of warehouse facilities and the allocation of work orders and workforce.
CBG’s system is currently deployed on the Navantia-designed Hobart class destroyers.
