The technology transfer process-- The case of the LNG tanker

OCEAN 75 Conference, 1975
The technology transfer process is very complex and difficult, especially where secondary uses of innovations ("spinoffs") are involved. Six diverse cases of transfer of aerospace technology to civil land and sea transportation systems were examined.

Unusual Fire Hazard of LNG Tanker Spills

Combustion Science and Technology, 1973
Abstract The spreading and evaporation rates of liquified natural gas spilled on water are estimated theoretically. Subsequent gravitational spread and heating of the vapor evolved from the spill generates a pancake-shaped cloud in 15 minutes or less.

Simulation of a LNG tanker track-keeping autopilot in canal water

2012 International Conference on System Engineering and Technology (ICSET), 2012
This paper examines manoeuvring track-keeping autopilot of a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) tanker hull form, which was fitted by fins while taking into account the ship bank interaction effects. A time domain simulation program including ship steering autopilot has been developed to study the manoeuvring track for full loading condition.

A STUDY ON THE AIR RESISTANCE OF AN LNG TANKER BY EMPIRICAL AND CFD METHOD

International Journal of Engineering Applied Sciences and Technology, 2022
Air resistance has a significant effazqect on ships with large main deck structures such as container ships, liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanker, and large cruise ships. This paper presents a method to determine the air resistance for LNG tankers model by doing the experimental test in the wind tunnel.

Safety implications of a large LNG tanker spill over water

Process Safety Progress, 2005
AbstractThe increasing demand for natural gas in the United States could significantly increase the number and frequency of marine LNG (liquefied natural gas) imports. Although many studies have been conducted to assess the consequences and risks of potential LNG spills, the increasing importance of LNG imports suggests that consistent methods and ...

Russian LNG sales will be stymied by a lack of tankers

Emerald Expert Briefings
Significance Russia’s gas export strategy is predicated on the rapid growth of liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. Following the collapse of pipeline gas sales to Europe, Russia’s plans to export more via pipelines are all based on increasing supplies to China.

Maneuvering Large Tankers Alongside a Floating LNG (FLNG) Facility

23rd International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, Volume 1, Parts A and B, 2004
The FLNG concept involves the use of a large, turret-moored floating facility that processes natural gas from local production fields and stores the products for export. The products are transferred through conventional hard arms located on side of the FLNG to tankers moored alongside.

Some Important Factors in LNG Tanker Design Selection

1995
Although it is true to say that there are at least fifteen different LNG tanker design technologies available today, the position is not quite so confusing as this statement implies. The differences in the systems lie almost entirely in the containment techniques; the cargo handling arrangements vary very little from design to design.
