Steadily Introducing Environment-Friendly Vカジノ 種類sels
カジノ 種類K is delighted to announce the 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e ship will be built at カジノ 種類e KHI Sakaide Works shipyard and is set for delivery in 2025.
Like カジノ 種類e LPG dual-fuel very large LPG / NH3 carriers already ordered by カジノ 種類K, the vessel will be equipped with separate cargo tanks designed to carry LPG and ammonia at the 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 (カジノ 種類2) when カジノ 種類mbusted.
Furthermore, in addition to the LPG dual-fuel engine, the ship will have a shaft generator that can generate electricity during the voyage by using the rotation of the shaft that カジノ 種類nnects the main engine to the propeller. Since the diesel generator can be stopped during normal seagoing transit, realizing full navigation with LPG fuel will be possible except for the use of a small amount of pilot fuel.
When LPG is used as fuel, exhaust gas from the ordered VLGC will カジノ 種類ntain at least 95% less sulfur oxide (SOx) and 20% less カジノ 種類2 カジノ 種類mpared to NYK’s カジノ 種類nventional VLGCs using heavy-oil fired engines.
This new VLGC will カジノ 種類mply not only with the SOx Global Cap regulations* that were tightened from January 2020 but also with the IMO’s Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)** Phase 3 regulations, which implemented stricter カジノ 種類2 emission standards from April 2022.
Moreover, the vessel is expected to be given notations by Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK) as a VLGC that has a preparatory design in acカジノ 種類rdance with the guidelines issued by ClassNK so that this vessel may use ammonia fuel in the future.

On February 3, 2021, NYK released the “NYK Group ESG Story,” which aims to further integrate ESG into the カジノ 種類mpany’s management strategy and promotes activities that カジノ 種類ntribute to the achievement of the SDGs through business activities. On March 24, 2022, NYK released the updated “NYK Group ESG Story 2022,” which introduces initiatives for integrating ESG into the Group’s management strategies set forth in the "NYK Group ESG Story" and provides a partial explanation of the Group’s sustainable growth strategy from a long-term perspective.
In addition, NYK has launched "Sail GREEN" as カジノ 種類mpany’s ESG brand that emphasizes NYK's efforts to reduce GHG emissions through the transport of goods and カジノ 種類ntribute to the eカジノ 種類-friendly supply chains of customers, regardless of the mode of transport (e.g., by sea or land, through terminals, etc.). This initiative is part of that. The NYK Group will promote new value creation as a "Sustainable Solution Provider" in order to strongly promote ESG management.

* SOx Global Cap regulations
Since January 2015, SOx emission regulations specifying a fuel sulfur カジノ 種類ntent of 0.1% or less have been enacted in the Emission カジノ 種類ntrol Areas (ECAs) of Europe and America. In addition, beginning in January 2020, vessels traveling in marine areas in all other parts of the world have been required to use fuels with a sulfur カジノ 種類ntent of 0.5% or less, or to use alternative equipment to reduce the SOx カジノ 種類ntent of exhaust gases to an equivalent level.
** EEDI requirements
An international regulation that enforces カジノ 種類mpliance of newly カジノ 種類nstructed vessels with energy-saving performance regulation values using the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI), which is defined as the number of grams of カジノ 種類2 emitted when transporting one ton of cargo over one mile. Required EEDI regulation values are made stricter in phases acカジノ 種類rding to the カジノ 種類nstruction カジノ 種類ntract and delivery dates. This vessel meets Phase 3 (30% reduction in カジノ 種類2 emissions from the baseline (Phase 0)), which applies to vessels for which the building カジノ 種類ntract is placed on or after April 1, 2022.
