Liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanker vessel is operated to carry natural gas at cargo temperature of around -163°C. The containment system is designed to allow heat to escape into the cargo area. Around 0.15% of boil-off gas (BOG) is typically present in the cargo volume per day. Thus, the cargoes fro...
