1 LNG Shipping News A LNG JOURNAL TITLE ON LNG TANKERS AND SMALL SCALE 22 January 2015 Anthony Veder, Sirius launch Baltic LNG bunkering A Swedish-Dutch shipbuilding JV has ordered ice-class LNG bunker ship Coralius with a Dutch yard for charter by Finnish-state controlled LNG bunker supplier and terminal operator Skangass. A newly formed a joint venture, Sirius Veder Gas AB by Dutch multi-gas operator Anthony Veder and Swedish chemical tanker operator Sirius Rederi, will jointly own an LNG bunkering and feedering ship. The partners are deciding which one will technically manage the vessel. Sirius Rederi already operates an LNG bunker vessel in the port of Stockholm,187 cubic metre capacity Seagas, providing Finnish operator Viking Line s cruiseferry Viking Grace tonnes of LNG when the ship is moored at Stadsgården in Stockholm. It s newly announced bunker ship Coralius, with 5,800 cubic metres LNG cargo capacity, will operate for Skangass between Norway and Sweden to meet SECA emissions targets for LNG-fuelled vessels from its delivery date in early Currently LNG-fuelled tankers and ferries operate in the region. Coralius will load LNG in Norway and Sweden and distribute in the Baltic area, bunkering ships and also feedering, possibly for terminals. The ship features Ice class notation 1A, enabling Baltic trading in winter. This ship will also operate in the strait lying between Norway in Sweden, called Skagerrak. Skangass has previously announced plans to supply LNG bunkers in the area that includes With five LNG-fuelled tankers on order, Anthony Veder has plans to use an LNG bunker ship to fuel its LNG fuelled ships.

2 2 NEWS LNG Shipping News 22 January 2015 Norway, DNV GL, Teekay studying how hybrid batteries combined with LNG saves shipowners fuel Class body DNV GL has initiated the Green Coastal Shipping programme, a joint effort by Norwegian ministries and international industry players. Batteries can have a vital role for LNG-powered ships, said DNV GL s programme director for the Green Coastal Shipping programme, Narve Mjøs. They can help to reduce fuels costs and to prevent emissions of methane in the low power areas. Green Coastal Shipping Participants Teekay Shipping Norway Cargo Freighters Assosiation Norwegian Shipowners' Association Nor Lines ABB GasNor Statoil Norsk Industri DNV GL Ministry of trade, industry and fisheries Ministry of Climate and Environment Norled Energi Norge Risavika Havn Kongsberg Maritime Posten og Bring NHO Sjøfart NOx-fondet It is a very good combination in many cases, Mjøs told LNG Shipping News. Norwegian ministers last week signed a declaration of cooperation with industry players. The programme will have three phases over 10 to 20 years, and call upon ship owners, freight forwarders, shipping companies, banks, ports, and gas and electricity suppliers. Ships would run entirely or partly on batteries, LNG or other green fuels. invovled could be a fleet of offshore vessels, tankers, cargo, container, bulk and passenger ships, ferries, fishing and aquaculture vessels, tugs and other coastal vessels. In Phase 1, particpants will study the potential for combined battery and gas-based maritime transport in Norway, which DNV GL calls hybrid ships. Source: DNV GL Participants in Phase 1 will identify the commercial potential of different ship types for their businesses, clarify for authorities the socioeconomic benefits for example of reducing road traffic and emissions, as well as start pilot projects. In Phase 2 they will develop their business cases, and discuss possible regulatory, financial, procurement policies and incentives with the Norwegian government. In Phase 3 targets for emissions reducitons will be set and in Phase 4 the programme will be implemented. Ship types that may use a hybrid system include retrofitted ferries, while newbuilding tugs and Offshore Supply Vessels (OSV) can also use the system, said DNV GL. It lists payback on investment from fuel savings on these hybrid ships from 4-5 years. The decades-long fleet upgrade programme is receiving support from Norway s Ministry of Trade, Industry and Fisheries and the Ministry of Climate and Environment. The declaration is based on a study submitted to the Ministry of Trade and Industry in 2010 by Maritim21, an industry-led maritime research body. EU funds Greek shippers LNG-as-fuel plan The EU's TEN-T Programme is donating around 600,000 to beneficiaries, including ferry operators, to study LNG fuel and plan a small scale supply network on the Greek coast of the Aegean Sea. Companies receiving funding include Greece s state-owned gas utility, Public Gas Corporation (DEPA) and the Shipping Company of Crete, an affiliate of shipper ANEK lines, an operator of passenger ferries. Other beneficiaries are Centre for Research & Technology Hellas, Syros Shipbuilding & Industrial Enterprises "Neorion", and Regions of the South Aegean. The study aims to promote LNG as fuel for passenger and cargo ships between the Greek islands. It will identify options for an LNG supply chain in the South Aegean, required retrofits and infrastructure in ports, ships and shipyards, business plans for each operator, and finish in December It will bring together a number of key LNG value chain stakeholders with the objective to identify the technical and economic framework for LNG as marine fuel in the South Aegean. Specifically, the group will look into the main supply chain options, required retrofits and infrastructure in ports, ships and shipyards, as well as business plans for each operator. The project will provide recommendations to the Greek government in view of supporting the future LNG fuelling network. The project was selected for EU funding with the assistance of external experts under the TEN-T Annual Call 2013, priority 'Decarbonisation/oil substitution or environmental cost reduction'. Its implementation will be monitored by INEA, the European Commission's Innovation and Networks Executive Agency.

The deal was finalised Monday after gaining Government approvals. The new joint venture owned 70% by CSSC and 30% by Wärtsilä, assumes ownership of Wärtsilä's 2-stroke engine technology. The head office of WinGD remains in Winterthur, Switzerland and the company has subsidiaries in China, South Korea and Japan. Wärtsilä will remain responsible for its global service network. WinGD, founded in 1898, designs two-stroke low-speed gas and diesel engines under the Wärtsilä brand name and under license in four shipbuilding countries. WinGD has its headquarters in Winterthur, Switzerland, where its activities were, and employs about 350 people worldwide Wärtsilä aims to enhance the market opportunities for Wärtsilä 2-stroke engines through the partnership: CSSC is the largest shipbuilding conglomerate in China and exports ships and related products worldwide. It is hoped the move wil accelerate product development and bring new engine technologies to the market faster than earlier. "The combination of Wärtsilä's technical leadership and CSSC's industrial strength will support the aim of WinGD to serve the industry with advanced products," says Mr Martin Source: Wärtsilä A Wärtsilä RT-flex50DF engine Wernli, CEO, WinGD.

4 4 NEWS LNG Shipping News 22 January 2015 Round trip Panama transit costs $680,480 LNG carriers of around 173,000 cubic metres capacity will pay a total of $680,480 for round-trip transits through the expanded Panama Canal delivering a cargo from the US Gulf Coast or the Atlantic Basin to the Far East and returning with ballast, according to new tariffs released by the canal authority. The new transit tariffs for the Canal will come into force in February 2016 after the full expansion project is complete at a cost of $5.25 billion. The expanded Canal with new and wider locks will allow 80 percent of the global LNG fleet to use of the waterway. The use of the expanded Canal, rather than the longer voyage around the tip of South America, will cut voyages to Asia from the US Gulf coast by more than 7,500 nautical miles. LNG carriers will be charged by cargo-tank capacity that will not differentiate between Moss-style storage tanks and membrane-type ships. The expanded Panama Canal tariffs based on cubic metres of liquid cargo differs from the Suez Canal, which calculates fees according to a vessel's gross tonnage. LNG carriers from the US Gulf Coast, Atlantic LNG in Trinidad, Cove Point in Maryland and Canadian export projects in Nova Scotia would benefit economically from using the Panama Canal. The route will also be favoured by arbitrage traders in the Atlantic Basin, with LNG cargoes valued at around $35 million or more. "The LNG vessel type is created to incorporate gas carrier vessels transporting liquefied natural gas. The unit of measurement to be used for toll collection of this new type of ship is the cubic metre of cargo capacity," the Panana Canal Authority explained. "This unit is commonly used in the maritime industry to measure this particular type of ship, as well as in the trading of LNG, which would make the Canal tariff system easier to understand for this segment. "This toll proposal contemplates the use of four bands that include the first 60,000 cubic metres of cargo capacity, the next 30,000 cubic metres of cargo capacity, an additional 30,000 cubic metres of cargo and a last band for the remaining capacity," the authority said. The proposals show that laden LNG carriers would be charged $2.50 per cubic metre (cbm) for the first 60,000 cbm, $2.15 per cbm for the next 30,000 cbm, With the first gate on the new locks in January, the expansion project is 85% compete Source: PCA $2.07 per cbm on the subsequent 30,000 cbm and $1.96 per cbm on the remainder. LNG carriers in ballast are deemed to be those carrying up to 10 percent of their cargo volume. Under the proposals, the carriers in ballast would qualify for a discount if returning within a given time frame, saving $34,830. The ballast fees are: $2.23 per cbm on the first 60,000 cbm, $1.88 per cbm on the next 30,000 cbm, $1.80 per cbm on the subsequent 30,000 cbm and $1.71 per cbm on the remainder. "Shippers that use the same vessel for a voyage to and from a specific place through the Canal will pay the laden tariff for the laden portion of the trip and would be eligible for a round-trip ballast fee, if the return transit in ballast through the Canal is made within 60 days," the authority explained. The tariff tables would mean that an LNG vessel of 173,000 cubic metres capacity, regarded as the optimum in terms of voyage economics, would pay fees per transit ranging from $380,480 laden down to $300,000 in ballast. Nigeria charters Golar LNG vessels while awaiting newbuilds from Korean yard Golar LNG has been awarded two time charters by West African producer nation Nigeria to employ the recently delivered "Golar Frost" and "Golar Crystal" carriers as the West African nations awaits the delivery of newbuilds from a South Korean shipyard. Employment of both vessels under these contracts will commence in January 2015 and will continue for a duration of around 12 months for each vessel, Golar said. NLNG has elected to retire earlier than planned three of its smaller and less efficient LNG carriers and to replace these with Golar's more modern and technically advanced ships, while the Image credit: Golar LNG country awaits the delivery of its own recently ordered newbuilds. Golar's Chief Executive Doug Arnell said of the short-term charters: "Golar is delighted to be selected by NLNG for these charters. "This new business opportunity provides the clearest possible demonstration of the significant benefits available from the vessels delivered under Golar's existing new-building program. "Significant reduction in boil-off and a material improvement in fuel efficiency have contributed to the decision to replace the older vessels with Golar's new buildings." The 160,000 cubic metres capacity "Golar Crystal" was delivered in October 2013 from the Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) shipyard in South Korea. Along with the same capacity sister ship, the "Golar Frost", delivered in June The "Golar Frost" is named after a previous Golar vessel which was converted into a Floating Storage and Regasification Unit for offshore Italy and renamed. NLNG shipping unit Bonny Gas Transport ordered four newbuilds in April 2013 from SHI in Korea at a cost of $900 million. Under that deal the four carriers will be delivered in 2015 and The company is a joint venture involving Nigerian National Petroleum Corp., Royal Dutch Shell, France's Total and Italy's Eni. It has capacity to produce 22 million tonnes of LNG per annum. However, the company has been increasing its spot cargo deliveries to Japan, while also facing production problems. NLNG has regularly declared "force majeure" over the last three years because of feed-gas problems and a dispute between the LNG company and the local maritime authority led to some LNG carriers ships being temporarily blockaded.

Saving opex Weight and space in offshore facilities always need to be taken into consideration as they are expensive. Processes with less equipment, being everything else the same, should be preferred. Compressors and turbines are key in weight reduction efforts as they have considerable weight. In many offshore projects, aeroderivative turbines are used due their lower weight and smaller dimensions when compared to industrial turbines. In addition, they are 10-15% more efficient. Core-in-kettle heat exchangers occupy about 50% of the space and have about 25% of the weight of shell and tube exchangers. Coil Wound Heat Exchangers (CWHE) in the precooling cycle occupy less plot space than conventional propane kettle evaporators, a plus for the DMR process. Design for safety As in onshore LNG projects, safety concerns strongly influence layout of facilities and processes to be used. It is important to have both process and safety engineers working together right from the start of the project in order to come up with feasible, cost and time effective solutions.
