6 OPERATOR s DILEMMA Choice of fuel type after year 2020: LNG Fuel Oil with up to 0,5% Sulfur Fuel Oil with more than 0,5% Sulfur + Scrubbers 6 6

7 LNG RETROFIT CONCEPT DESIGN 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 o o o Loss of cargo capacity: approximately 7 to 8 (16.5) trailers. Assumed LNG bunkering frequency: Every round trip voyage 9 12 months actual equipment construction and delivery to yard. 2 3 months installation onboard 7 7

8 LNG RETROFIT Superfast I (Attica Group) Vessel linked to the Port of Patras 8

9 LNG RETROFIT Retrofit Analysis to LNG Tank Room LNG tanks & Foundation (below deck or outside) Ventilation Systems Fuel Gas Supply System (FGSS) LNG double walled Piping Gas detection & fire suppression inert plant Bunkering stations Automation & control systems Exhaust pipe gas burst disc Operating manual & class approval 9

10 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

11 LNG New Building Detailed design for an innovative Ro/Pax ferry: LNG GASS BOTTLE 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. 11

12 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

13 CONCLUSIONS 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 How can LNG be widely adopted as marine fuel? Price of LNG < Fuel Oil 13 13
