Sažetak
Up to the middle of the last decade LNG tankers were built only when the gas exploitation project as well as the market to sell it existed. Ships were operating on the basis of the long term Sales and Purchase Agreement, and predetermined terminals for LNG loading and unloading. As a result of increasing LNG demands, a disproportion between LNG production, available ship transport capacities, and LNG unloading and regasification terminals, has occurred. Such a situation has been recognized as the opportunity to construct and utilise ships with necessary LNG regasification equipment on board enabling ships to unload gas directly to the “grid”. The paper compares conventional LNG and LNG – SRV tankers. Furthermore the advantages and disadvantages of SRV (Shuttle and Regas) – LNG tankers have been pointed out in the context of increasing importance of natural gas as the global energy source and its transport as well.
