Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) tanker often travels through shallow waters with visible banks for its operations. Manoeuvring of vessel in shallow water is relatively difficult and exposed to higher risk level. Asymmetric flows around the ship when the ship travel close to bank may results in sway forc...
