A flexible LNG-fueled multi-purpose LO/LO (Lift- on/Lift- off) vessel being developed for Norwegian shipowner Egil Ulvan Rederi is to have a cutting-edge fuel-gas supply system provided by male Cryo– MALE Energy Solutions’ aquatic LNG fuel-gas-system producer.
Scheduled for distribution in late 2020, the 3,500 dwt-vessel will certainly have a size of 86 m as well as breadth of 19.5 m. It will certainly service the big salami in between Troms ø in north Norway to Østfold in the southeast.
It is being developed at Turkey’s Tersan shipyard to Førde, Norway, developer Multi Maritime’s MM85CC style.
It will certainly be the shipbuilder’s 6th LNG-fueled given that 2016 to have a GUY Cryo aquatic fuel-gas system.
The vessel’s multi-purpose style offers it with reefer ability, a chilled hold as well as lifts for palletized items, in addition to the ability to release fish food at fish ranches along its path.
Arild Hoff, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER at Egil Ulvan Rederi, stated: “MAN Cryo has been chosen as supplier for the LNG fuel-gas system based on the company’s track record of complex LNG solutions. There was no doubt early in the process that MAN Cryo was the preferred supplier because they showed the right level of understanding and knowhow to meet our requirements.”
UPRIGHT GAS STORAGE TANK
Louise Andersson, Head of MALE Cryo, stated: “This specialized vessel makes its own unique demands for reliability and redundancy and we are happy to rise to the challenge with an innovative solution that includes a vertical fuel tank.”
MALE Cryo’s range of supply for the vessel covers:
- an upright, vacuum-insulated 364 cu.m LNG container
- an intricate tank-connection area with 2 repetitive LNG supply trains, based upon both a pump as well as a pressure-build-up system
- an LNG cold-recovery evaporator
Worldwide, there are just a couple of upright LNG containers in procedure that are classified for aquatic applications. MALE Cryo has actually created upright LNG containers for aquatic fuel-gas systems given that 2011 as well as can point out recommendation tasks varying from 89 to 400 cu.m gross quantity.
Vertical containers supply benefits that consist of:
- much less influence on security as a result of smaller sized fluid surface area
- much less probability of producing sloshing
- boosted hydrostatic stress, assisting in gas circulation.
