GE Marine 和大连船舶重工集团有限公司联合设计的"燃气轮机驱动的LNG运输船"方案获得了英国劳氏船级社的AIP认证(原则性认可)

September 09, 2014

伊文戴尔, 俄亥俄州(2014年9月)- GE Marine 和大连船舶重工集团有限公司(DSIC)宣布他们联合开发的"燃气轮机驱动的LNG运输船"方案已获得了原则性批准(AIP)。此项认证由劳氏船级社颁发,并认为该设计是有别于传统动力系统创新设计。

上述三家公司于2013年底宣布开始进行基于燃气轮机动力的LNG船联合开发,之后迅速展开联合开发设计,并通过了船级社的AIP的审核。GE Marine 副总裁 Brien Bolsinger说,"获得了AIP,我们现在就可以开始转入整体系统的详细设计,并且增强客户在采购燃气轮机驱动的LNG运输船的信心。"

这种新型LNG运输船设计将使客户在船舶生命周期拥有较低的运营成本,更好的环保表现以及更高的可靠性。采用GE Marine 的燃气轮机将使LNG运输船满足日益严苛的环保法规,与此同时还将降低船东和运行方的运营费用。
