5 5 OPERATOR’s DILEMMA

Choice of fuel type after year 2020:

 LNG

 Fuel Oil with up to 0,5% Sulfur

 Fuel Oil with more than 0,5% Sulfur + Scrubbers

6 6 LNG RETROFIT CONCEPT DESIGN

 RO-PAX “SUPERFAST I” –

 Builder : Nuovi Cantieri Apuania, Hull Number 1240

 Main design features (in collaboration with N.A.P. Engineering):

o Two (2) separate tanks, Type C. Dimensions: diam 4,8m, length 26m, total capacity 646m3.

o Position of the tanks: Aft open area on Deck 4.

o Loss of cargo capacity: approximately 7 to 8 (16.5) trailers.

o Assumed LNG bunkering frequency: Every round trip voyage

o 9 – 12 months actual equipment construction and delivery to yard.

o 2 – 3 months installation onboard

7 7 LNG RETROFIT

Superfast I (Attica Group) – Vessel linked to the Port of

8 LNG RETROFIT

Retrofit Analysis to LNG

 Tank Room

 LNG tanks & Foundation (below deck or outside)

 Ventilation Systems

 Fuel Gas Supply System (FGSS)

 LNG double walled Piping

 Gas detection & fire suppression inert plant

 Bunkering stations

 Automation & control systems

 Exhaust pipe gas burst disc

 Operating manual & class approval

9 LNG New Building

Task:  Detailed design for an innovative Ro/Pax :  Attica Newbuilding & Operations Dept : Concept design & requirements  NAP ENGINEERING: Initial / Basic Design  HeLeNGi ENGINEERING: LNG Design Kit  Lloyds Register: Documentation Approval

Deliverable:  Report on LNG as fuel on new building design  Progress: Started beginning of September 2016

10 LNG New Building

Detailed design for an innovative Ro/Pax ferry:

LNG GASS BOTTLE

A new breed of Ro/Pax Ferry that will incorporate LNG as marine fuel, environmental friendly solutions and ECO hull shape that will optimize the resistance.

11 LNG New Building

Innovation:

 Dual fuel (LNG + MGO)

 ECO Hull & Propeller design

 Solar Panels on shelter

 Low Consumption

 60% More cargo capacity (from previous gen. BS Delos)

 Compliance with Safe Return To Port (SRTP) regulation

 EEDI requirements (Phase II)

12 CONCLUSIONS

Facts regarding the use of LNG as marine fuel :  Capital costs are considerably higher (+ 7 - 10% for new-building vessels)

 Shortage of qualified crews

 Need for Infrastructure development (LNG bunkering ports, bunkering vessels, safety considerations, legal framework, survey systems)

Unknown factors : Future pricing of LNG vs. Fuel Oil

How can LNG be widely adopted as marine fuel ? Price of LNG < Fuel Oil
