H

4、owever, recently, many owners and shipyards, looking to improve operational efficiency and reduce the size of the engine room to increase cargo carrying capacity have selected propulsion plants alternatives to steam turbine There are various proposed machinery arrangements being considered by the in

5、dustry which include: Direct drive slow speed diesel engine propulsion with a reliquefaction plant as the means to dispose of the boil-off gas. Direct drive slow speed dual fuel diesel engine(s) propulsion. Electric propulsion with medium speed dual fuel diesel engines Electric propulsion with dual

6、fuel gas turbine(s) as the prime mover(s). In some cases, with the combination of propulsion and power generation alternatives mentioned above, there may be a need to also install a gas combustion unit to dispose of excess boil-off gas. It must be acknowledged that while the IMO IGC Code permits the

7、se various arrangements as acceptable means for pressure/temperature control in the cargo tanks, it does not comprehensively address propulsion systems other than steam turbine. Accordingly, this Guide has been developed in order to provide guidance for the design and construction of aforementioned

8、propulsion solutions with particular attention to the safe utilization of boil-off gas. The requirements in this Guide are consistent with the intent of the requirements of the IGC Code and have been developed by extensive use of the risk based rule-making methodology, i.e., risk identification by a

9、 group of specialists and stipulation as to the means of mitigation of the risks identified. In all cases the requirements of this Guide is to supplement areas which are not addressed in the IGC Code and is not intended to conflict or replace any of the requirements in the IGC Code. Where the requir

10、ements of this Guide are proposed to be used to comply with Chapter 16.6 of the IGC Code, such application is subject to approval by the flag Administration prior to issuance of Certificate of Fitness on behalf of the flag Administration by ABS. This Guide has been developed for the propulsion syste

11、m for LNG carriers. However, the Guide may be applied to other types of vessels that utilize methane as fuel. This Guide supersedes the ABS Guide for Design and Installation of Dual Fuel Engines, January 2003. The applicable edition of the Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels is to be used

12、in association with the subject Guide. This Guide becomes effective immediately upon publication. We welcome your feedback.
