LIQUIFIED NATURAL GAS (LNG) CARRIERS
Modern liquefied natural gas carriers are double-bottom ships classified according to the type of LNG tank. The tanks are specially designed to store natural gas cooled to -161°C, the boiling point of methane.

Analysis of LNG carrier propulsion developments [PDF]
The LNG market has undergone major changes and significant development in recent years. With the increase in the number of ships and the increase in the amount of gas transported, the propulsion machinery of LNG ships has also changed. For many years, the steam turbine was the only propulsion engine on this type of cargo ship.
