We investigate a possibility of constraining statistical anisotropies of the<br />
primordial tensor perturbations by using future observations for the Cosmic<br />
Microwave Background (CMB) B-mode polarization. By parameterizing a<br />
statistically-anisotropic tensor power spectrum as $P_h ({\boldsymbol{k } }) =<br />
P_h (k) \sum_n g_n \cos^n \theta_{\boldsymbol{k } }$, where<br />
$\theta_{\boldsymbol{k } }$ is an angle of the direction of<br />
$\hat{k}={\boldsymbol{k } }/k$ from a preferred direction, we find that it would<br />
be possible for future B-mode observations such as CMB-S4 to detect the tensor<br />
statistical anisotropy at the level of $g_n \sim {\mathcal O} (0.1)$.
