A CONCEPT OF AN INLAND LNG BARGE DESIGNED FOR OPERATION ON THE ODRA WATERWAY
Journal Title: Scientific Journals of Silesian University of Technology. Series Transport - Year 2017, Vol 95, Issue 95
Abstract
The paper examines the feasibility of transporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) along the Odra waterway. It looks at the existing LNG carriers and presents concepts of inland vessels designed for operation on the Odra waterway. Examples of inland LNG barges operating on waterways, which involve high inland navigational infrastructure parameters, are presented. Requirements and restrictions of the class III Odra waterway are discussed in the context of the transportation of LNG inland. Possible variants of inland LNG carriers designed for operation on the Odra waterway are examined, with some of their characteristics discussed in view of the restrictions on navigation. Two variants of barges, which meet the requirements of shipping along the Odra waterway, are presented.
