This Chapter 10 of the CINI Manual originally has been compiled by the international CINI committee “LNG / Cryogenic Thermal Insulation” in 2010 with the members as listed below.

Due to new developments in the field of cryogenic insulation a review of this Chapter 10 was set up. The committee members suggested to invite insulation specialists from other organisations to participate in this review as to expand the field of expertise and to include all proven practices as much as possible.

The review by e-mail started early 2014 and was completed with a meeting in the Amsterdam area in July 2014. In the list below you find an overview of the international companies and their experts (focal points only) who contributed to this review.
