The nature of LNG transport has evolved in the last few years,
and so too has the operational requirements of LNG vessels.
In addition to traditional 20- to 30-year LNG charter contracts,
new ships are ordered and constructed for various trade
routes and spot markets, which requires varying operational
profiles. To stay profitable, modern LNG Carriers require a
propulsion solution that provides fuel flexibility and high
efficiency across the entire propeller speed range.
The K-Line LNG Carrier, Tangguh Jaya, is equipped with a state-of-the-art electric propulsion system from ABB.
