LNG Transport

When transporting LNG by ship, cost-efficiency is just one factor among many. Ship operators must meet extremely tight receiving and delivery schedules along with toughening safety and security regulations and guidelines at loading terminals. Moreover, ships have to match an increasing number of environmental regulations and guidelines, affecting, for instance, power generation when moored.

Optimizing flexibility, availability, economy as well as environmental compliance, Siemens’ portfolios for seagoing vessels integrate all products and services needed for sustained maximization of ship performance, ranging from state-of-the-art solutions for integrated power generation and drive systems with dual-fuel 2-stroke diesel-electric or COGES schemes to a host of process peripherals such as boil-off gas compression.

Moreover, Siemens’ dedicated ship automation solutions integrate all technological aspects of the LNG carrier, such as the cargo system, bilge system, ballast system, and all other machinery systems, including dual fuel engines, gas turbines, two-stroke diesel engines and the electric propulsion system for electrically driven ships, ensuring lower operating costs and greater efficiency for shipyard, ship owner, trading partners and crew alike.
