2. Summary LNG Carriers and Routes Hull Forms Propulsion Systems Propeller and Rudder Marine Coatings CFD Future of LNG

4. Cooled to approximately -160°C (-260°F)

6. Majority of new ships under construction are 120,000 m³ to 140,000 m³.

7. Orders for ships with capacity up to 260,000 m³.

10. Simple and Robust

11. Easily retrofitted to existing vessels

12. Flexibility for both Single and Twin Screw

14. Marine Coatings Specialised Anti-Foul Coating Prevents growth on hull Excess growth on Hull = Higher Skin Resistance Hempel X-3 Self Polishing Anti-Foul 100 Tonnes/Day$600/Tonne MDO

15. Computational Fluid Dynamics Experimental Analysis toImprove and Optimise Design Higher Efficiency = Lower Fuel Consumption = More Profit Limitless Possibilities of Hull Form using CFD

17. Ultra-ocean stability

18. Reduced fatigue (no hog or sag)

19. Design speeds of 60-100 knots
