Description

Description (EN):

The ‘LNG in Baltic Sea Ports II’ project was investigating the possibilities for developing LNG infrastructure in Baltic Sea ports. The project built on the results of the flagship ‘LNG in Baltic Sea Ports’. Both projects were initiated by the Baltic Ports Organization as a response to the International Maritime Organization’s impending regulation on sulphur content in ships’ fuel (as of January 2015). This and other regulations regarding e.g. SOx and NOx emissions, exert pressure on the maritime sector to look for an alternative to the bunker oil used today. The main aim of the project was to foster a harmonised approach towards LNG bunker filling infrastructure in the Baltic Sea area. Each of the project partners is planning the development of port infra-structure in order to offer LNG bunker options to ships in the future.

Achievements (EN):

The LNG Handbook is based on the experiences gained from the participating ports in the project, as well as other ports in the area with experience from planning, designing and establishing LNG terminals and LNG as ship fuel. http://www.lnginbalticseaports.com/assets/files/do_pobrania/Final_Conference_Trelleborg/LNG_Handbook.pdf
