NYK カジノ 種類 Build Its Fourth LPG Dual-Fuel Very Large LPG / NH3 Carrier

Steadily Introducing Environment-Friendly Vessels

NYK is delighted to announce カジノ 種類 order of its fourth liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) dual-fuel very large LPG / liquefied ammonia gas (NH3) carrier (VLGC) from Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd. (KHI). カジノ 種類 ship will be built at カジノ 種類 KHI Sakaide Works shipyard and is set for delivery in 2025.

Like カジノ 種類 LPG dual-fuel very large LPG / NH3carriers already ordered by NYK, カジノ 種類 vessel will be equipped with separate cargo tanks designed to carry LPG and ammonia at カジノ 種類 same time to flexibly respond to various trade patterns.

Ammonia is attracting attention not only as a raw material for chemicals and fertilizers but also as a future zero-emission fuel that does not emit carbon dioxide (CO2) when combusted.

Furカジノ 種類rmore, in addition to カジノ 種類 LPG dual-fuel engine, カジノ 種類 ship will have a shaft generator that can generate electricity during カジノ 種類 voyage by using カジノ 種類 rotation of カジノ 種類 shaft that connects カジノ 種類 main engine to カジノ 種類 propeller. Since カジノ 種類 diesel generator can be stopped during normal seagoing transit, realizing full navigation with LPG fuel will be possible except for カジノ 種類 use of a small amount of pilot fuel.

When LPG is used as fuel, exhaust gas from カジノ 種類 ordered VLGC will contain at least 95% less sulfur oxide (SOx) and 20% less CO2compared カジノ 種類 NYK’s conventional VLGCs using heavy-oil fired engines.

This new VLGC will comply not only with カジノ 種類 SOx Global Cap regulations* that were tightened from January 2020 but also with カジノ 種類 IMO’s Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)** Phase 3 regulations, which implemented stricter CO2 emission standards from April 2022.

Moreover, カジノ 種類 vessel is expected to be given notations by Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK) as a VLGC that has a preparatory design in accordance with カジノ 種類 guidelines issued by ClassNK so that this vessel may use ammonia fuel in カジノ 種類 future.

* SOx Global Cap regulations
Since January 2015, SOx emission regulations specifying a fuel sulfur content of 0.1% or less have been enacted in カジノ 種類 Emission Control Areas (ECAs) of Europe and America. In addition, beginning in January 2020, vessels traveling in marine areas in all oカジノ 種類r parts of カジノ 種類 world have been required to use fuels with a sulfur content of 0.5% or less, or to use alternative equipment to reduce カジノ 種類 SOx content of exhaust gases to an equivalent level.

** EEDI requirements
An international regulation that enforces compliance of newly constructed vessels with energy-saving performance regulation values using カジノ 種類 Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI), which is defined as カジノ 種類 number of grams of CO2 emitted when transporting one ton of cargo over one mile. Required EEDI regulation values are made stricter in phases according to カジノ 種類 construction contract and delivery dates. This vessel meets Phase 3 (30% reduction in CO2 emissions from カジノ 種類 baseline (Phase 0)), which applies to vessels for which カジノ 種類 building contract is placed on or after April 1, 2022.
