Henrik Malm, Managing Director at MAN Energy Solutions, Sweden and Finland, said “This represents yet another world-first for MAN Cryo where the boil-off gas will be sent to the low methane-slip ME-GI via a high-pressure, boil-off-gas compressor. Due to the installed shaft generator, this further reduces the running hours on the auxiliary engines.”

The scope of delivery includes the following:

• port- and starboard-side bunkering stations
• LNG storage tank with a volume of 2,300 m3
• tank connection space with low-pressure vaporizer, BOG heater and two LNG pumps
• high-pressure gas-handling equipment for delivery of gas to MAN B&W ME-GI two-stroke main engine
• boil-off gas (BOG) management system, including one high-pressure compressor
• ·on-board nitrogen-generation system
• control system as well as gas-detection system.

The FGSSs for the vessels will be delivered during 2023.
