Yeah, looks like polyurethane foam insulation typically used in bigger tanks. |

@ MO Roy,
These type C LNG fuel tanks are normally of a double shell construction. The annular space is filled with perlite after which this space is vacuumed, thus creating a sufficiently high "holding time" of the LNG in the tank. These ones however, seems to be insulated in another way considering their surface condition being not so smooth. |

NOx, SOx, PM, black carbon... not to mention what happens if there's a spill.
LNG is... nice! |

But the problem with the old diesel is its excessive sulphur content, so LNG becomes more interesting. And there are other things involved besides maintenance - you should see the elaborate way they made the access to the aft free fall lifeboat (not installed yet), to keep it away from hazardous area...
Cheers Vlad |

Hell of a lot of extra cost and maintainance with LNG installation. You cannot be the old Diesel !!! |

Tomas, almost anything can be squeezed into "Ships under construction" category, but this one maybe is really pushing it... :)
Cheers Vlad |

Beware of the deletion-army Lappinio, seems like the ladder-structure aint perfectly straight, hehehe! Tomas |

Matty Boy a wide angle shot can make anything look obscene, remember front shots of pronounced bulbs on the slipway before launch? |

Quite frankly, this has to be one of the most obscene looking vessel I've ever seen !!! ;-)))) |

Thank you all for your comments. These are Type C LNG tanks, insulated against heat to prevent excessive boil-off, but I don't know the specifics. Hyundai Samho has experience with those from Sovcomflot Aframax tankers, and from Zvezda Aframaxes as well. They will have some effect on stability, but it's all taken into account...
Cheers Vlad |

Therse must be a lot of insulation if they are left out in the open like this.
Cheers, Roy |

@Csaba, special LNG bunker ships are already in operation in the Rotterdam area, this

So those are the fuel tanks? How do they affect stability? Will these kind of ships need special facilities for refueling or are they LNG barges?
Many thanks... |
