LNG new trends
• Offshore LNG:• Floating production (FPU),Floating storage (FSU), Floating production
& storage unit (FPSU), Single-mooring (gas)buoys, etc
• Onshore LNG:• Gravity based Receiving terminals, Cryogenic caverns
• Small Scale LNG:• Satellite terminals, LNG Transport trucks, Tankcontainers, Filling
stations
• LNG as Fuel:• Fuel: Trucks, trains, inland barges, port vessels, filling stations
• Bunkers: bunker stations, bunker barges

Importance of LNG in NW Europe
1.Declining domestic production is replaced by imports2. LNG offers increased security of supply 3. Gas for transport offers growth opportunities

LNG Fuel Challenges
Challenges ahead for downstream market penetration:
• Standard legislation and equipment standardisation;
• Safety training on how to handle liquid gasses to
maintain safety record;
• Engine management technology development;
• Incremental investments in port infra
• Incremental investments in engine rooms of vessels;
• Multiple of LNG operators requires extra Safety.

• Bunker & Fuel supply
Satellite terminal:
• Redistribution in local
gasgrid
• Bunker & Fuel supply
LNG’s future:
Similar infrastructure as
downstream Oil products:
• Fuel supplies
• Fuel stations
• Bunker stations
AND
• Local gasdistribution in

New small scale LNG Carriers
Remarks:
• facilitators for downstream market penetration of LNG to satellite terminals
• carrier capacity: 1,250 m3 - 16,000 m3 – initial small carriers since 2005
• tank type: semi pressurized / bullet-type (example by Kawasaki Shipbuilding.Co.)
• propulsion: diesel engine or dual fuel gas/diesel

Challenges for small scale LNG:
• Design of bunker barges;
• Design of river barges;
• Design of small LNG depots
• Modal split between water- and road

Terminal experience end 2014:
• Shortsea hub logistics up and running @ 5.000-20.000 m3 parcels
• Truckloading hub logistics up and running @ 50/100 m3 parcels
• Meaning:• Physical available
• Robust: multiple physical assets
• Choice: multiple suppliers
• Competitive
• Bunkering hub logistics @ 100-5.000 m3 parcels under development
• LNG logistics is improving. Infrastructure still limited
• LNG is a great product but oil logistics are well established (competition)
• Still many safety, standardisation & technical compatibility issues
