• Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is a ‘clean’ fuel, easily stored, with growing markets
for power generation and for vehicle fuel, especially in cities.
• Marine Transportation of CNG provides a flexible, viable solution for the large scale
transportation of natural gas from sources to ‘local’ markets, i.e. within 2,000 nautical
miles. This is accomplished by establishing a chain of CNG Carriers outfitted with
pressure vessels, in a constant state of filling, transiting and unloading to develop a
floating pipeline, where flow from the supply point to the delivery point is virtually
continuous.
• Marine Transportation is ideal for the monetarisation of gas from ‘stranded’ fields or
where there is a need to eliminate gas flaring and/or gas has been regarded as a by-
product to oil production.
• Marine CNG systems operate in an economic niche of their own, and are not direct
competitors with other delivery systems like pipelines and LNG.

15. BMT TITRON - Bunkering + Transportation of LNG
15
• Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a ‘clean’ fuel, easily stored, with growing markets for
power generation and for refuelling of seagoing vessels.
• BTUK has been working in collaboration with Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement
and Babcock LGE to develop a portfolio of short-range LNG transportation and
bunkering solutions suitable for worldwide development.
• These vessels have various outfit capabilities for cargo systems which enables the
delivery of LNG to shore terminals or bunker LNG fuelled vessels of all sizes and
capacities with no restriction on the type of containment on the receiving vessel.
• By working with a well-renowned LNG process company we have contributed to the
development of a system to transfer LNG at a rate very close to current liquid fuel
transfer rates.
