LNG Bunkering

LNG bunkering supplies liquefied natural gas as fuel at about minus 162 degrees Celsius by truck-to-ship, shore-to-ship, or ship-to-ship transfer, following the IGF Code and the IGC-derived practice from LNG carriers. It needs cryogenic transfer arms, vapor return, and careful cool-down to avoid thermal shock, plus boil-off management. A growing bunker-vessel fleet at hubs such as Rotterdam, Singapore, and Zeebrugge supports the LNG-fueled fleet, with simultaneous operations protocols allowing bunkering during cargo work under controlled conditions.
