gas, refrigerated liquid, with high methane content)
• Similar requirements as for other refrigerated liquid products
• Type G tank vessel with pressure tanks
Boil-off

EMISSIONS TO AIR
Revision of Directive 97/68/EC (NRMM Directive)
Status of work
• Proposal published by European Commission in September 2014
• Discussion in EU Council Working Group started in November 2014
Main content of proposal for IWT gas and dual fuel engines
• Equal treatment for engines using traditional fuels and natural gas (methane)
identical emission limits
• Stringent requirements
ambitious limits for NOx, HC, PM, CO
introduction of PN (particulate number)
• Methane slip taken into account
first time regulation for GHG
additional emission limits
Issues still to be resolved / clarified• Current proposal limited environmental
and no climate advantage for LNG
• Technological challenges (DPF, SCR, …) and almost prohibitive cost
alternative proposal based on EPA emission limits combined with PN

G. PAULI, IVR WORKSHOP, BASEL, 21 MAY 2015
CONCLUSIONS
All safety issues identified and most resolved
Unprecedented parallel amendments of technical, police as well as
navigation personnel regulations
Tremendous, but partially insufficient input from governments, external
experts & industry
Fundamental changes in safety regulations for IN
Gaseous fuels
Risk assessment / risk based design
Evaluation of amendments called for, based on future experience
CCNR as international organisation dedicated to IN proven its
effectiveness & raison d’être
Legislative stalemate in EU emission regulations
Climate benefits of LNG doubtful; environmental benefits limited as
engines using diesel will become very clean
