Virtual pipeline:
Using the existing logistics and communication infrastructure
The LNGTainer System makes distributing liquefied natural gas to new gas consumers both easy and cost-efficient. The prohibitive cost of special vessels, terminals, truck and storage tanks designed solely for LNG distribution has thus far prevented its wider use. Until now, LNG has been unloaded and filled at every stage of the distribution chain.
With the revolutionary LNGTainer System, no unloading and refilling is required. Normal trucks are used to move the containers, with contents, from the terminal and the LNGTainer itself can be used for both storage and usage. LNGTainer containers can be handled easily and efficiently using the existing container transportation infrastructure, i.e. container ships, harbours and rail and flatbed trucks.
The monitoring and communication technology in LNGTainer enables the real-time monitoring and steering of containers and the container fleet.
Bunkering system for ships
Exchangeable, modular and fast bunkering system for ships.
One LNGTainer unit is about 1 day’s fuel consumption for
an average-sized ship (equal to 23/24 ton HFO/diesel oil).
Gas station for vehicles
CNG for gas-driven cars.
LNG and CNG for trucks.
LNG for heavy transport vehicles.
Small power stations
Exchangeable fuel delivery as well as modular storage system ready to use. Regasification system included.
