FUTURE PROJECTS FOR CNG SHIPPING

The compressed natural gas (CNG) shipping concept aims to offer savings in the transportation of natural gas by eliminating the need for the expensive onshore refrigeration trains that are required in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) method. This paper's purpose is to explain the variety of proposed CNG concepts and to provide information intended to facilitate guidance in understanding the key differences between the different CNG concepts and their practical impact on ship design and construction. The paper discusses the key competitive concepts for CNG transport with regard to the monohull ship design. The technology of storing compressed gas in pipelines is used to find out solutions to the problem of storing compressed gas onboard ships. The concept of CNG transport joins the aspects of these two technologies together.
