Using the low LNG<br />

temperature to capture cargo<br />

vapours that are otherwise lost<br />

the global fleet of crude oil<br />

tankers is estimated to emit five<br />

million tons of cargo vapours annually<br />

during transit.<br />

the low temperature associated with lng vaporization is used to capture<br />

cargo vapours (volatile organic compounds – vocs) normally released<br />

to the air during voyage. it is estimated that up to 500-600 tons of cargo<br />

vapours can be captured during each cargo roundtrip.<br />

the recovered cargo vapours are stored in deck tanks and intended for<br />

use as fuel for auxiliary boilers supplying steam to operate cargo pumps.<br />

significant financial losses are avoided and environmental benefits are<br />

gained.
