A Brief History – The beginning of LNG Shipping “Methane Pioneer”
1959
(ex- “Normati”) converted in 1959 to an LNG carrier of 5,000 m3
“Methane Princess” & “Methane Progress” – first purpose built gas ships constructed in 1964 with a cargo capacity of 27,000 m3 7
A Brief History – The Development of the Regulations » The first LNG carriers: 1959 - Methane Pioneer 1964 - Methane Princess and Methane Progress
» Regulations for LNG carriers: » 1976
Code for Existing Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk
1976
Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk
1983
International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk.

Existing Code Impact on Shipping
» The key areas where the IGC code will impact commercial shipping are: • Gas Containment Systems • Proven Propulsion Systems
9
Gas Containment Systems - Type A Tanks
10
Gas Containment Systems - Type B Tanks
11
Gas Containment Systems - Type C Tanks
12
Gas Containment Systems - Current Fleet Tank Designs Development of the ‘membrane’ techniques in France by two separate companies Gaz-Transport and
Technigaz. They have now merged into one company - ‘GTT’ 13
Gas Containment Systems - Current Fleet Tank Designs » Development of the spherical tank design (MossRosenberg) type ship in early 1970’s

IGC – Chapter 16 “Methane (LNG) is the only cargo whose vapour can be used in machinery spaces of category A and in such spaces may be utilised only in boilers, inert gas generators, combustion engines and gas turbines.”
LNG - UP
LPG - DOWN 18

Gas Fueled - Diesel Engines – Fuel Supply Class Requirements for Dual Fuel Engines »
Double wall arrangements as for boiler plant
»
Start up on oil fuel only
»
Immediate change over to oil fuel operation
»
Gas valve timing to prevent gas passing to the exhaust
»
Crankcase gas detection

Dual Fuel Diesel Electric
26
New Era in LNG – A New Code » At MSC 78 in May 2004 the IMO May - - approved a new work programme: “The Development of international regulations for gas fuelled ships’
» This Code refered to as the IGF Code is not expected to enter force before 2015 and by then many of us here would expect to be either using gas as fuel by this time or certainly to be at an advanced stage of planning and commitment.
» Despite the best endeavours of many people, the industry finds itself in a similar situation to that of the early days of LNG shipping where ships were in service and the rules were produced retrospectively.
27
Do we need Prescriptive Rules? » Although the final IGF Code is not completed, the industry is in fact much better shape than when the first LNG carriers were brought in to service. » Today we already have the following: • • • •
IGC Code. Interim Guidelines for Gas fueled vessels Many experienced personnel in the industry. Good safety procedures
» Lets Build on the experience and knowledge of the existing LNG Industry so that we can deliver safe, reliable and effective powering solutions. You are not alone!
28
There are Hurdles Ahead – for conversion to LNG Managing Public Perception An education campaign should be considered
Managing the Regulatory Environment IMO Rules do not yet exist Class rules exist but are inconsistent Flag state must be consulted and onboard with decisions taken Environmental issues need to be incorporated
Training Effective Training of Shore Staff Effective Training of Crew
29
The Responsibilities of a LNG User To Maintain Safety Maritime LNG industry has an unparalleled safety record
To Educate employees at all levels CEO down must have the basic knowledge
To disseminate Informed and accurate information Your credibility and your customers trust is at risk
30
Summary » The LNG shipping industry has an exemplary safety record built up over the last 50 years.
» Let us maintain that safety record for gas-fueled vessels.
» LNG is safe but is required to be handled with care and respect.
» Let us look forward to the future and the use of ‘LNG as fuel’ with the added benefits to our ENVIRONMENT and our OPERATING COSTS.
