In addition, SHI said the boil-off rate has improved by more than 5% as an area where LNG touches the cargo tank is reduced, and maintenance costs are also greatly reduced thanks to a decrease in the number of equipment and parts for each cargo tank.<\/p>\n The design was jointly developed with GTT<\/strong>, the French company specialized in membrane cargo tanks, and has received an AiP from Lloyd’s Register.<\/p>\n The ‘Eco Container Ship’ secured additional space to load 8% more containers by separating a ship’s operating part and cabin area. In addition, it was designed to use methanol and ammonia as a fuel in the future. maritime professional<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) held aTechnology Road Show in Europe as an official debut of its new design ship.
