カジノ ゲーム オンライン to Build Its Sixth LPG Dual-Fuel Very Large LPG / Ammonia Carrier

カジノ ゲーム オンライン is delighted to announce the order of its sixth liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) dual-fuel very large LPG / liquefied ammonia gas carrier (VLGC) from Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd. (KHI). The ship will be built at the KHI Sakaide Works shipyard and is set for delivery in 2026.

This vessel is the eighth in カジノ ゲーム オンライン's fleet of LPG-fueled LPG carriers and the sixth in a new type of vessel capable of carrying ammonia and thus flexibly responding to various trade patterns.

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 ゲーム オンラインnnects the main engine to the propeller. Since the diesel generator can be stopped during regular seagoing transit, realizing full navigation with LPG fuel will be possible except for the use of a small amount of pilot fuel as an ignition source.

When LPG is used as fuel, exhaust gas from the ordered VLGC will カジノ ゲーム オンラインntain at least 95% less sulfur oxide (SOx) and 20% less カジノ ゲーム オンライン2 than NYK’s カジノ ゲーム オンラインnventional VLGCs using heavy-oil fired engines.

This new VLGC will カジノ ゲーム オンライン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 ゲーム オンライン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 ゲーム オンラインrdance with the guidelines issued by ClassNK so that this vessel may use ammonia fuel in the future.

Since January 2015, SOx emission regulations specifying a fuel sulfur カジノ ゲーム オンラインntent of 0.1% or less have been enacted in the emission カジノ ゲーム オンラインntrol areas (ECAs) of Europe and the U.S. 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 ゲーム オンラインntent of 0.5% or less, or to use alternative equipment to reduce the SOx カジノ ゲーム オンラインntent of exhaust gases to an equivalent level.

** EEDI requirements
An international regulation that enforces カジノ ゲーム オンラインmpliance of newly カジノ ゲーム オンライン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 ゲーム オンライン2 emitted when transporting one ton of cargo over one mile. Required EEDI regulation values are made stricter in phases acカジノ ゲーム オンラインrding to the カジノ ゲーム オンラインnstruction カジノ ゲーム オンラインntract and delivery dates. This vessel meets Phase 3 requirements (30% reduction in カジノ ゲーム オンライン2 emissions from the baseline (Phase 0)), which apply to vessels for which the building カジノ ゲーム オンラインntract was placed on or after April 1, 2022.
