“…AEsøy et al [8] and Acciaro et al [2] address that costs, availability and technical maturity appear to be the most critical issues for the success of LNG as a maritime fuel on a larger scale. The LNG is a solution for the future, because engines need be modified for this type of fuel, or new fleet built from one vessel to the next.…”

“…It is expected that strict regulations on NOx and SOx emissions, combined with a more competitive gas price, will drive the uptake of gas as a marine fuel. Based on recent experience, the new-building cost of LNG-fueled ships is approximately 10-15% higher than for equivalent diesel-fueled ships [28]. Although LNG bunkering infrastructure is currently limited, a significant increase in the number of bunkering terminals is expected in the coming years, especially within emission control areas.…”

“…Already more than 20 LNG-fueled ships have been built, mostly operating in Norwegian waters [28,29]. Eide et al demonstrated that the introduction of LNG has a reduction potential of 8% of the total baseline emissions in 2030 [5].…”

Background: Recent studies have demonstrated a cost-effective potential to reduce the CO 2 emissions in the existing world shipping fleet by 15%, and by 30% for the 2030 fleet. Methods & results: CO 2 abatement pathways for shipping towards 2050 have been modeled, using a new probabilistic model. In addition to measures analyzed in the past, the uptake of alternative fuels is modeled. The results show that with uptake of operational and technical measures, as well as biofuels and liquefied natural gas, the cost-effective CO 2 reduction potential in 2050 is in the order of 50%. Conclusion: For shipping to substantially contribute to a 2°C pathway, a financial incentive for biofuel is one alterative, but nuclear power in large ships could also cut emissions drastically.

“…An additional high-pressure gas compressor or a LNG pump is needed to provide such a high pressure. In addition, special piping and a safety system are required (Boulougouris and Chrysinas, 2015;DNV GL, 2015a;AEsøy et al, 2011).…”

Air emissions from fishing vessels must be reduced to comply with progressively tightening environmental regulations. Among the available solutions, liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel may represent a promising solution, particularly from an environmental perspective. However, the use of LNG as a marine fuel creates different types of hazards than those that exist for traditional fuels. In addition, the higher complexity, safety requirements, and space needed for LNG installation increase the capital cost. This article uses a systems engineering approach to clarify the technical aspects of LNG-fuelled systems, their potential implementation costs, and the expertise and training needed to operate them safely. Ship owners can use such an approach to aid decision-making and trade-off analyses. Naval architects may also benefit from better information management. Finally, the crew may better understand the logic behind the safety actions they are instructed to take.
