-
- LNG carriers and vessel interface engineering
-
- LNG loading arms and transfer systems
-
- Ship-to-shore interface management
-
- Marine terminals, jetties, and berths
LNG Marine Systems and Ship-to-Shore Operations
LNG marine infrastructure includes critical systems such as jetties, loading arms, ship-to-shore interfaces, and LNG carrier vessels. Safe and accurate custody transfer—whether loading or unloading LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas)—is essential to ensure operational safety, regulatory compliance, and the secure transfer of high-value cargo.
-
- Plan review against statutory (IMO, IGC, IGF & national legislation) requirements
-
- Classification plan review (IACS – ABS, LR, etc.)
-
- Interface coordination with process plant systems
Our owner’s engineering services support Port Masters (Harbour Masters) and terminal operators in preparing marine facilities and vessels for safe and efficient LNG loading and unloading operations. We assist with operational readiness, compliance reviews, resolving complex challenges related to reliability, interoperability and marine interface performance.
Our team also has experience with ice-class LNG carriers and operations in ice-affected waters. This expertise enables us to support port authorities, regulators, and investors in evaluating optimal jetty locations, marine traffic considerations, and operational risks in challenging environments.
We provide support across the full project lifecycle—from front-end design advisory services and shipyard oversight to Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), sea trials, and commissioning of ship-to-shore interfaces—ensuring LNG marine systems operate safely, reliably, and efficiently.
Shipyard Oversight and Owner’s Engineering for LNG Vessels
Effective shipyard oversight is essential to ensure that the construction of high-value LNG vessels proceeds efficiently without compromising quality, safety, or long-term operational performance.
-
- Owner’s Representative shipyard presence
-
- Construction monitoring and technical oversight
-
- Testing, commissioning, and operational readiness
Our team brings global experience across all marine project phases, from design and shipyard supervision to sea trials and in-service vessel reliability. With pragmatic and skilled personnel, we support every aspect of construction, including hull / machinery construction, LNG membrane integrity, boil-off gas (BOG) use as a fuel in both steam and DFDE & reliquefaction systems.
We specialize in both standard and ice-class LNG carriers, ensuring that vessels meet rigorous operational standards. Deploying the right owner’s engineering team enhances construction quality, ensures regulatory compliance, and maximizes performance and reliability throughout the vessel’s service life.
Expertise Across Shipyard and Ship-to-Shore Operations
Whether supporting shipyard oversight or ship-to-shore interfaces, LNG projects and operations have distinct phases requiring specialized expertise. Our team of experienced engineers and technicians brings hands-on knowledge both on vessels and in shipyards, addressing challenges at sea and in port.
We understand the complexities of national and international regulations, including IMO standards, and provide guidance at every stage—from early project planning through to full operational readiness—ensuring safe, compliant, and efficient LNG operations.
