LNG Carrier

An LNG carrier is a ship that liquefies natural gas at -163°C, reducing its volume to 1/600 for transport. Hanwha Ocean has its own LNGC fuel gas supply system (FGSS) and natural gas reliquefaction system.

Hanwha Ocean is recognized for its unrivaled technology in LNG carriers, with the delivery of the world’s first ice-breaking LNG carrier and the world’s largest floating LNG storage and regasification unit.

Key Characteristics

Cargo Capacity

174,000 CBM

  • LNG Cargo Containment System

    Utilizes GTT's NO96 cargo tank technology, providing various insulation systems (GW, L03+, and Super+) to manage LNG's natural boil-off gas.

  • LNG Propulsion

    Compatible with MAN's high-pressure ME-GI and low-pressure ME-GA engines, as well as WinGD's low-pressure X-DF engines.

  • Gas Management Systems (GMS)

    Features proprietary Full Reliquefication Systems (FRS) for high-pressure engines, Advanced Partial Reliquefication Systems (A-PRS), and Nitrogen Refrigerant Systems (NRS) for low-pressure engines, ensuring safe management of boil-off natural gas.

  • Fuel/Emission Reduction Technologies

    Offers advanced optional solutions, including Air Lubrication Systems (ALS), Shaft Generator (SG), Rotor Sail, and Onboard CO2 Capture Systems (OCCS), to support the transition to eco-friendly vessel operations.

Smart Ship

The LNG carrier seamlessly integrates with Hanwha Smart Ship Solution & Service (HS4), the company's proprietary smart ship platform.
This automation enables shipowners to monitor critical data in real-time, facilitating informed decision-making for optimized fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.
