Dual-Fuel Electric LNG Carrier Propulsion


MAN B&W Diesel

THE ADVANTAGES:
INCREASED PROFITS

Decreased Fuel Cost per Calory for Charterer with LNG

~ 50% Improvement of Propulsion System Efficiency Compared to S.T. ~ 3% Higher LNG Cargo Capacity than S.T. ( Increased LNGDel) Cargo Bunkering = Fuel Bunkering Easy Logistics, No Time Loss

Environment Friendly (NOx < 1,5 g/kWh; CO2 ; No SOx; No Particles) Green Ship Improved Flexibility & Efficiency at Part Loads (Multi-Engine Plant) Underway Maintenance Possibility Without Adverse Effect on Ships Schedule Simple System with One Engine Type (48/60DF) Only for All the Ships Power Needs Low Pressure Gas Fuel Supply (5 6 bar) Safety Aspect Gas/HFO Fuel Flexibility (if requested) in Steps due to Multi-Engine Configuration Last But Not Least: Equivalent Redundancy / Reliability to Steam Turbine Plant !!

THE NEUTRALS: Higher Structural Vibrations than S.T. Can Be Solved (Resilient Seatings) THE DRAWBACKS:
Influence on Ship prices depend heavily on market situation and portfolio strategy of the yard. Charter Rates ?

Overall Investment Costs difficult to assess: Larger Number of Cylinders Unusual for LNGC Operators,
(though very common e.g. on cruise liners) DF vs S.T. Plant Maintenance Costs? Ships mobility remains unaffected! (maintenance during voyage possible)

Boiling Temperatures at atmospheric pressure:


Component Nitrogen Methane Ethane Propane Butane Boiling Temperature -196 C -161 C - 89C - 45C + 1C

Result: If the additional LNG is vaporized in a Forced Boil-Off Unit at


arround 100 C only Methane and Nitrogen will be evaporated.

LNG as Gaseous Fuel for DF-Engine


MAN B&W Diesel

Results:

By using an adequate external gas supply system the evaporation of heavier


hydrocarbons in the FBO unit will be avoided. So only Methane and Nitrogen will be evaporated. Therefore the methane number of the fuel gas will always be over 80.

The probability that the Nitrogen content in the NBOG exceeds 18 Mol-%
is minimal.

No power reduction of the engine necessary
