LNG bunkering Ship to Ship<br />
•<br />
• No gas emissions - during bunkering for minimal environmental impact and safe operation<br />
• Safe & Secure system – ESD systems, Correct procedures, Quick Connect drip free coupling,<br />
drip trays
LNG bunkering Ship to Ship<br />
Conclusions and result<br />
• Standardization- the IMO IGF Code or creating an ISO standard<br />
• Receiving ship: Bunker port design and location, mooring arrangement<br />
• Bunker Ship: Manifold and bunker area design, easy and safe hose handling<br />
• LNG tank system design with IMO type C tanks for both ships – can handle pressure<br />
without any release of Methane gas
LNG bunkering Ship to Ship<br />
Result<br />
• Presented in June 2010<br />
• Approved in principle by DNV<br />
• Based on guidelines from OCIMF and SIGTTO<br />
• Used buy STA as well as Trafi as a starting point for<br />
LNG STS bunkering<br />
• Have been presented in the IMO by STA<br />
• Available for download at www.smtf.se
Further development<br />
• Within CNSS the STS<br />
bunkering procedures will<br />
be combined with port<br />
regulations<br />
– Other traffic<br />
– Emergency response<br />
– Communication<br />
– Parallel Activities<br />
– etc.<br />
• Will be ready in the<br />
beginning of 2012
