Kawasaki Bags Order for LPG Fueled LPG & NH3 Carrier

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
09 Dec, 2021, 5:30 am

Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd has concluded a shipbuilding contract for an 86,700 cubic meters liquefied petroleum gasand liquefied ammonia gas carrier powered by LPG fuel for Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha. This is the first LPG/NH3 carrier for Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha. The vessel is equipped with separate cargo tanks designed to carry LPG and NH3 at the same time. This contract represents their 75th LPG carrier, 12th LPG-fueled LPG carrier and 5th LPG/NH3 carrier to be constructed by Kawasaki. Kawasaki plans to complete the construction of the vessels at its Sakaide Works in 2024.

The advantage of this dual-purpose vessel is its capability to simultaneously carry LPG, which is already used as a low-carbon energy source, and NH3, a new fuel contributing to the establishment of a decarbonized society. Another feature is the greater capacity of the cargo tanks as compared to conventional carriers, which was achieved without significantly changing the vessel’s length, breadth, or other main specifications.

Fueled by low-sulfur fuel oil and LPG (which significantly reduces the emission volumes of sulfur oxides [SOx], CO2, and other pollutants in the exhaust gases as compared to marine fuel oil), the vessel meets SOx emission standards set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO)*1, as well as the IMO’s Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)*2 Phase 3 regulations, which are scheduled to adopt stricter CO2 emission standards in 2022. In addition, the vessel is equipped with a shaft generator that converts the rotational energy of the main engine into electric power. This enables the vessel to stop all the diesel generators under the normal sea-going condition.

Specifications

Length overall Approx. 230.00 m

Breadth 37.20 m

Depth 21.90 m

Summer draft 11.65 m

Tank capacity 86,700 m3

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
15 Dec, 2021, 5:30 am

NYK announced the order of its first two liquefied petroleum gas dual-fuel very large LPG & ammonia gas carriers from Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. Both ships will be built at the KHI Sakaide Works shipyard and are set for delivery in 2024. Unlike conventional VLGCs, the vessels will be equipped with separate cargo tanks designed to carry LPG and ammonia at the same time to flexibly respond to various trade patterns.

Furthermore, in addition to the LPG dual-fuel engine, the ships will have a shaft generator that can generate electricity during the voyage by using the rotation of the shaft that connects the main engine to the propeller. Since the diesel generator can be stopped during normal seagoing transit, realizing full navigation with LPG fuel will be possible except for the use of a small amount of pilot fuel.

Outline of Vessel

Length overall: approx. 230 meters

Breadth (moulded): 37.20 meters

Depth (moulded): 21.90 meters

Summer draft (moulded): 11.65 meters

Tank capacity: approx. 86,700 cubic meters

When LPG is used as fuel, exhaust gas from the ordered VLGCs will contain at least 95% less sulfur oxide and 20% less CO2 compared to NYK’s conventional VLGCs using heavy-oil fired engines.

Eerste tankers met vloeibaar gas uit Azië naar van kou bibberend Europa
Door THEO BESTEMAN

Updated 3 min geleden

in FINANCIEEL

AMSTERDAM - Enkele grote tankers met vloeibaar gemaakt gas uit Azië hebben volgens handelaren hun steven richting Europa gewend. Binnen enkele weken komt dit gas aan. Landen als Nederland hebben schaarste aan gas zoals dit LNG, terwijl ze de winterkou in gaan.

Grote LNG-tankers zijn vanuit Azië op weg naar Europa, waar inkopers de aanbieders forse premies betalen voor schaars gas. ANP/HH

Omdat Aziatische landen al eerder dit jaar er wel voor hebben gezorgd dat hun voorraden goed gevuld zijn voor de winter, kunnen partijen met daar overtollig gas die op de zogeheten spotmarkt worden verhandeld naar Europa. Energiebedrijven hier betalen momenteel graag de enorme premies op dit gas uit Azië, aldus persbureau Bloomberg.

Ondanks het bericht van toekomstige levering steeg de gasprijs dinsdag weer naar een record. De beeldbepalende Nederlandse termijnmarktprijs voor een TTF-contract tikt na 16% stijging €173 per megawattuur aan. Inmiddels is de gasprijs dit jaar ruim 600% gestegen. Het duurt gemiddeld bijna twee weken voordat een Aziatisch schip zijn lading in bijvoorbeeld Rotterdam kwijt kan.

BEKIJK OOK:
Klimaatplannen Timmermans liggen EU-lidstaten zwaar op de maag

Meerdere schepen met LNG worden nu uit Azië omgeleid omdat landen in Europa de portemonnee willen trekken om maar aan wat gas te kunnen komen, aldus een gashandelaar die anoniem wil blijven.

Nordstream-zorgen
De energieprijzen schoten eerder dit jaar in Azië de hoogte in toen China voor de winter alles van steenkool tot meststoffen wilde inslaan. Nu de winter in Noordoost-Azië zacht is begonnen, zitten de kopers van Japanse nutsbedrijven tot Chinese fabrieken voldoende vol met LNG.

De Aziatische spotprijzen voor dit vloeibare gas zijn, vrij uitzonderlijk, dinsdag in de regionale handel gedaald tot onder die van Noordwest-Europa. Die daling is ongekend, omdat Azië tot nu toe veel meer afhankelijk is van LNG-import dan Europese landen. Vooral in pittige winters, als de vraag uit Japan, Zuid-Korea, China en Taiwan het hoogst is, kopen bedrijven er alles wat maar voorradig is.

De hoge gasprijs heeft er in Nederland toe geleid dat meerdere aanbieders onderuit zijn gegaan: zij konden zich de hoge markttarieven niet meer veroorloven.

BEKIJK OOK:
Waakhond denkt na over buffer voor energiebedrijven

In Europa hebben inkopers afgelopen maanden de grootst mogelijke moeite om hun voorraden in afzonderlijke landen aan te vullen vanwege de onzekerheid over de toekomst van de Russische Nord Stream 2-pijpleiding richting Duitsland. Het gas van Gazprom wordt er tegengehouden, omdat het bedrijf voor het laatste stuk in Duitsland geen vergunning heeft en een Duits kantoor voor beheer van dit deel van de pijp ontbreekt.

Opbieden
Deze week liepen prijzen verder op vanwege de door Rusland gestopte leveringen via de Yamal-pijpleiding, een belangrijke toegangspoort vanuit Rusland naar Duitsland.

Landen binnen Europa zijn afgelopen weken begonnen met het tegen elkaar opbieden om ladingen gas voor de winter veilig te stellen. De stroomprijs loopt ook nog op, mede na de beslissing in Frankrijk dinsdag om een viertal kernreactoren uit te zetten voor extra onderhoud.

BEKIJK OOK:
Gasvelden Noordzee door torenhoge prijzen weer profijtelijk voor Nederland

Verwacht wordt dat 30% van alle nucleaire capaciteit in Frankrijk begin januari 2022 buiten werking zal zijn. Frankrijk is afhankelijk geworden van de invoer van elektriciteit. Het is nu juist een exporteur van allerlei energie. Vanwege de energiecrisis heeft de regering in Parijs aan producent EDF gevraagd om enkele kernreactoren eerder dan gepland weer op te starten. Maar dat proces duurt weken.

De vier Franse kernreactoren zijn doorgaans goed voor 10% van de nucleaire capaciteit. Uitbater EDF ontdekte vorige week problemen. De Fransen gaan nu zelfs stookolie gebruiken voor de opwekking van energie, en verhogen daarmee hun CO2-uitstoot.

BEKIJK OOK:
’Einde prijsstijgingen gas nog niet in zicht’

De energietoevoer wordt verder afgekneld. In Duitsland sluit de overheid voor het einde van dit jaar 50% van zijn kerncentrales. Dat zorgde ervoor dat de Duitse stroomprijs voor levering volgend jaar, beeldbepalend voor Europese markten, dinsdag met nog eens 7% is opgelopen.

Gasprijs schiet omlaag nu Amerikaanse schepen met aardgas koers zetten naar Europa

De Europese gasprijs daalt ineens hard, waarschijnlijk vanwege Amerikaanse schepen met vloeibaar aardgas die hun koers hebben gewijzigd naar Europa. Minstens tien tankers hebben midden op de oceaan besloten hun gas aan Europa te verkopen, vanwege de hier hoge tarieven.

Wouter Peer 25-12-21, 08:31 Laatste update: 13:33

Waar de prijs van een megawattuur gas op de Nederlandse markt - leidend voor Europa - afgelopen dinsdag nog een recordhoogte aantikte van 188 euro, is deze nu flink gedaald naar 126 euro.

De gasprijzen stijgen al maandenlang explosief. De Russische aanvoer van gas naar Europa is onzeker, de voorraden zijn aan banden gelegd en spanningen met Oekraïne brengen twijfels bij Europese landen of de Russen hun gasexport zien als politiek middel. Daarnaast zijn er op Europees niveau steeds meer bewegingen om andere energievoorzieningen zoals kerncentrales en kolencentrales te sluiten. Dat drijft de gasprijs op en maakt de brandstof tegelijkertijd schaarser. Nog nooit is de prijs voor gas zo hoog geweest, en kleine energiebedrijven worden daar de dupe van.

De prijs voor gas in de VS is zo’n dertien keer lager dan hier, en dus loopt de Amerikaanse gasexport op volle toeren. Normaal leveren de Amerikanen voornamelijk aan Azië, omdat Europa het meeste gas importeert uit Rusland. Maar nu dit geen optie meer lijkt te zijn, en er hier een tekort aan gas gloort, denkt Amerika ons te kunnen verlichten.

Het roer om
Meerdere schepen met lng, zoals vloeibaar aardgas ook wel wordt genoemd, gooiden de afgelopen week plotsklaps hun roer om en kozen Europa als bestemming. Uit data van persbureau Bloomberg blijkt dat sowieso tien schepen van koers zijn gewijzigd, en van nog eens 20 schepen lijkt het ook alsof ze naar Europa gaan. Op de live tracking-kaarten van Marine Traffic zijn zo'n 15 lng-schepen te vinden die onderweg zijn naar Europa. Dat worden er waarschijnlijk dus nog meer.

Op de live kaarten van Marine Traffic kun je volgen waar de lng-tankers heen varen. Momenteel zouden er zo'n 15 op te zien zijn die richting Europa gaan. © Marine Traffic / Printscreen

Belgische krant De Standaard geeft voorbeelden van de vreemde routes die de schepen nu hebben afgelegd. Zo is er een tanker die ter hoogte van Singapore rechtsomkeert maakte en naar Europa vertrok. Een ander schip was al bijna bij eindbestemming China, maar wijzigde de koers naar het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Een schip vanuit Nigeria spant misschien wel de kroon: na Kaap de Goede Hoop gerond te hebben, werd de kapitein verteld via het Suezkanaal richting Europa te vertrekken, een route die tweeënhalf keer zo lang is als het normale traject van Nigeria naar de Europese kust.

Korte termijn
Dat dit soort schepen tijdens hun vaarroute van koers veranderen is niet heel gek, aldus Tie Schellekens, woordvoerder van de Rotterdamse haven. ,,De prijs is heel belangrijk voor de goederenstroom van gas. Het gaat dan om de verhouding van wereldwijde prijzen. Als de gasprijs hier ideaal is, dan kunnen goederenstromen daarvoor verlegd worden.”

Dat schepen plots van koers veranderen vanwege de gasprijs is op zich niet bijzonder. Het effect van de verkoop van Amerikaanse lng heeft hier meestal een kortdurend drukkend effect op de gasprijs.

Vaak wordt de bestemming van een schip kort voor vertrek pas duidelijk, soms is het ook zo dat een kapitein pas tijdens de reis te horen krijgt waar hij heen gaat. Soms liggen schepen zelfs te wachten voor de kust op een goed moment om de haven binnen te varen. Dat kan soms miljoenen euro‘s aan inkomsten schelen. Toch komt het niet vaak voor dat zoveel schepen ineens naar Europa komen, omdat normaal de prijzen in Azië gunstiger zijn.

Linde Severstal to Supply Heat Exchangers for Ethane & LNG Plant

Strategic Research Institute
Published on :
27 Jan, 2022, 5:08 am

Russian steel maker Severstal and German company Linde joint venture Linde Severstal will manufacture and supply spiral wound heat exchangers, SWTO, for a natural gas liquefaction plant as part of the Gas Processing Complex, part of the Ethane Gas Processing Complex, in the Ust-Luga in Leningrad Region of Russia. The production and supply of SVTO will be carried out under the EPC contract for the construction of a natural gas liquefaction plant, signed in September 2021 by RusKhimAlliance LLC, GPK operator, a joint venture between PJSC Gazprom and JSC RusGazDobycha, Linde GmbH and Renaissance Heavy Industries LLC. Orders for the manufacture of SVTO for two phases of the plant were received by Linde Severstal from Linde.

Spiral heat exchangers are the main technological equipment of a liquefied natural gas production line. As a liquid, natural gas occupies 1/600 of the volume in gaseous form. This ensures its more economical storage and the possibility of transporting it over long distances to areas remote from main gas pipelines. To produce LNG, natural gas must be cooled to cryogenic temperatures of minus 162 degree Celsius. The LNG plant in Ust-Luga will be the first large-capacity LNG project in Russia to be fully equipped with Russian heavy fuel tankers.

Each stage of the plant will include four SVTOs. The largest of them is the main cryogenic heat exchanger, consisting of two tube bundles (liquefier and subcooler) combined in one housing. The length of such a heat exchanger will be about 51 meter, the approximate diameter is 4.9 meters, and the weight is about 736 tonnes. In the process of manufacturing heat exchangers, components manufactured by Russian enterprises will be used. The main production processes will be carried out at the Linde Severstal site in St Petersburg.

The complex for the processing of ethane-containing gas and the production of LNG in the Ust-Luga region will become the largest gas processing enterprise in Russia and one of the most powerful in the world in terms of processing volume of 45 billion cubic meters of gas per year, as well as a leader in terms of production liquefied natural gas in the region of North-West Europe with 13 million tonnes of LNG per year.

These ship orders are part of a capesize bulk carrier fleet development aimed at achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions in the NYK Group's oceangoing businesses by 2050. The four ships will emit approximately no sulfur oxides, 85% less NOx, and 40% less carbon dioxide (CO2) compared to existing conventional heavy oil-fueled vessels. Additionally, the vessels will be compliant with the IMO’s NOx (nitrogen oxide) emission regulations (Tier III).

NYK is positioning LNG fuel as a bridge solution until future zero emission ships can be realized and has already decided to build the world's first LNG-fueled large coal carrier in 2019 and its first LNG-fueled capesize bulk carrier in 2021.

On February 3, 2021, NYK released the NYK Group ESG Story, which aims to further integrate ESG into the company’s management strategy and promotes activities that contribute to the achievement of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) through business activities. To strongly promote ESG management, the NYK Group will actively promote the replacement of its bulker fleet to next-generation eco-friendly ships and encourage new value creation as a sustainable solution provider.
