  1. LNG Bunkering Keith Barnes Director, Petroleum Barge Operations Harley Marine Services

  2. Outline • What is LNG • Why LNG • New Barge Design • Tank Configuration • LNG Bunkering Procedures

  3. What is LNG? • Liquefied Natural Gas • -162°C (-260°F) at atmospheric pressure • 85-96 mole% methane (CH4) • Clear, colorless, odorless, non-corrosive, non-toxic • More efficient method of transporting natural gas – 1/600th the volume of equivalent methane • About 45% density of water • Reduction in emissions from using LNG as a fuel: • CO2 other Green house gases – 20-25% • SOxand particulates – approx. 100% • NOX - 85-90%

  4. Why LNG • Fuel Prices • Domestically available in abundance • ECA – Emissions Regulations • LNG technology is available and mature • LNG as marine fuel is the only technically well-proven marine emissions legislation compliance strategy

  5. ECA Zones Worldwide

  6. Marine Emission Regulations 1 – SECA: SulphurEmission Control Area 2 – ECA: Emission Control Area 3 – Subject to a technical review to be concluded in 2013 this date could be delayed Source: Marine Service GMBH

  13. Bunkering Procedure • Initial precooling of fill lines • Precooling of the cargo pump • Connection of the bunker hose • Inerting the connected system with Nitrogen • Purging the connected system with NG • Filling sequence • Bottom Filling • Spray Filling • Liquid line stripping • Liquid line inerting • Disconnection
