The MAGALOG Project LNG-fueled shipping in the Baltic Sea

Transcription

1 The MAGALOG Project LNG-fueled shipping in the Baltic Sea

2 We need to make maritime traffic more environmentally friendly

3 A demand from the UN, EU, local ports and cities and the planet in general

4 LNG-fuel is one solution

5 Lower emissions Good economy Cleaner air in harbour and cities

6 The chicken and egg-problem:

7 No LNG-terminals no LNG-ships

8 No LNG-ships no LNG-terminals

9 So where do we start?

10 The MAGALOG project A collaboration to get past this problem

11 MAGALOG an acrynom for MAritime GAs LOgistics

12 Partly financed by the European Commision under the Intelligent Energy Europe programme

13 Partners Gasnor AS, Bergen, Norway Baltic Energy Forum (BALTEF), Mallentin, Germany Marintek AS, Trondheim, Norway Hordaland Oil & Gas (HOG), Bergen, Norway Municipality of Swinoujscie, Poland Stadtwerke Lübeck GmbH (SWL), Lübeck, Germany City of Swinoujscie

14 Objectives: To create a small scale LNG network in the Baltic Sea

15 Objectives: To create a small scale LNG network in the Baltic Sea To promote the use of LNG

16 We believe: In 5-10 years the majority of ships contracted for short sea trades will use LNG as a fuel

17 Why change to LNG?

18 For environmental reasons

19 Maritime traffic is a major contributor to air pollution

20 Stricter global limitations ahead

21 International Marine Organisation a spesialized agency of the United Nations Global Sulphur limitations - Global cap from 3,5% to 0,5%, effective from January 1, 2009 Global NOx limitations - 20% reduction of today s limits for new ships after 1. January 2011

22 European Union Adressing air pollution by ships is a part of an overall drive for development for the quality shipping

23 SECA SECA (Sulphur Emission Control Area) in the Baltic Sea (2006) and the North Sea (2007) only permit a maximum content of 1.5% sulphur in ships fuels. Other areas, such as the Mediterranean, are set to follow.

24 LNG vs diesel: Reduced emissions

25 For economic reasons

26 New taxes make LNG cost effective NOX levy in Norway of 15 kr/kg. The levy is scheduled to increase.

27 For availability reasons

28 Supplies from a number of sources Wales Melkøya 4,1 m tpy Bergen tpy Stavanger tpy Isle of Grain Zeebrügge Montoire de Bretagne Bilbao In Norway there are two production plants for LNG in operation and one under construction. In Europe there are a number of import terminals where LNG can be obtained. LNG production plants in Norway LNG import terminals in Europe

29 Not locked to one supplier

30 Possibilities: Norway as an example

31 LNG is established in maritime transport Flakk-Rærvik (3) Haltenbanken. 2 PSV Kystvakt Molde-Vestnes (3) 10 LNG-fuelled ships in operation 18 more are ordered Oslo-Nesodden (3) Tampen. 2 PSV Halhjem-V?ge (1) Halhjem-Sandvikv?g (3) Arsv?gen-Mortavika (2)

32 LNG terminals 31 LNG terminals established or planned along the Norwegian coast

33 LNG ferries Five LNG-fuelled ferries like this are in operation. NOx-reduction compared to diesel is similar to taking cars out of traffic.

34 Supply ships Three supply ships operate in the North Sea

35 New coast guard vessels Three vessels are ordered

36 RoRo ships Two RoRo ships for North Sea operation have been ordered

37 Passenger Vessels New fuel-contract project: Three new LNG-fuelled passengers vessels between Oslo and

38 Building a network in the Baltic Sea

39 Why choose the Baltic region? Maritime traffic is a major contributor to air pollution in the area Established cooperation in the Baltic region on local air quality issues An interest by Norwegian partners to further explore the potential of LNG-fueled vessels EU-programs stimulating cooperation to explore new energy solutions

40 Key objectives Establish an alternative fuel supply chain for ships. Reveal routes and fuel volumes of shiptraffic well suited for using LNG for fuel in the Baltic. Demonstrate how practical results can be obtained by using LNG for fuel. Results should be transferable to other areas in the EU.

41 Studies in 5 cities around the Baltic Sea Bergen Stockholm Gothenburg Lübeck Swinoujscie

42 Gothenburg

43 Opportunities for LNG The largest harbour in Scandinavia More than 4500 calls per year (RoRo and RoPax) Smaller local ferries for which LNG can be of interest Potential for local distribution and use of LNG for instance for heavy trucks

44 Participants in Gothenburg Harbour: Göteborg Hamn AB Ship owner: Stena Rederi Local energy distributor: Göteborg Energi Bunkering company: Topoil Ship owners assosiation: Sveriges Redarförening

45 How do we build a terminal?

46 We plan to build small scale LNG terminals

47 Not like this Gas terminal in Huelva, Spain

48 More like this The LNG terminal at the Halhjem Ferry quay

49 More like this Supplying five gas ferries with LNG

50 Compact storage tanks Double shell vacuum insulated storage tanks 500 or 700 m3 tanks in series depending on the storage capacity required

51 Underground LNG pipeline An insulated pipeline transports LNG between the storage tanks and the ship The pipeline can be placed underground and therefore allow other activity in the quay area

52 LNG Storage: An example LNG terminal layout with 700m3 tanks Safety zone 30 meters Total capacity: 3500m3 LNG Energy content: 2 million Sm3 or 20 GWh 50 meters 50 meters Size: 50 by 50 meters Safety zone: 30 meters radius around accumulation pool

53 LNG-terminals give new opportunities for the cities

54 Possibilities for local distribution Air based evaporators for conversion from liquid to gas for pipeline transportation. LNG trucks for local distribution to end user adapted storages

55 Energy diversification Less dependency of oil, possibilities for LNG in city transport and heating etc

56 Opens the market for biogas Biogas and natural gas is the same type of gas

57 Link to hydrogen

58 What would we like you to do?

59 We need initiative: Ship owners must plan for LNG in newbuildings and existing ships

60 We need cooperation: Port authorities, ship owners, governments

61 LNG a win-win-win situation Ship owners: Better economy and better environmental profile Ports & Cities: Better air, new business and energy possibilities For us all: Less pollution and greenhouse emissions
