OPERATOR’s DILEMMA

6

RO-PAX “SUPERFAST I” – ATTICA GROUP

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

LNG New Building

Task:

Detailed design for an innovative Ro/Pax ferry:

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

Detailed design for an innovative Ro/Pax ferry:

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.

LNG GASS BOTTLE

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

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

13

CONCLUSIONS

How can LNG be widely adopted as marine fuel ?

Price of LNG < Fuel Oil
