Guidelines for Ships Using Alternative Fuels (Methyl/Ethyl Alcohol/LPG/Ammonia)
Year: 2024 Language: English Author: ClassNK Genre: Guide Edition: 2.1 (January 2024) Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 240 Description: Since alternative fuels based on LNG, LPG and methanol/ethanol have lower flashpoints than conventional fuel oils, their usage comes with the increased risk of fire or developing an explosive atmosphere if they are leaked into the ship; therefore, it is necessary to put in to place well-considered safety measures to mitigate such risks as much as possible. For this reason, the IMO discussed the development of internationally common safety requirements for ships using gas or other low-flashpoint fuels, and these discussions led to the adoption of the International Code of Safety for Ships Using Gases of Other Low-flashpoint Fuels (more commonly referred to as the “IGF Code”) at the 95th Session of the IMO Maritime Safety Commission (MSC 95) held in June 2015. the Guidelines will provide practical guidance for shipyards, manufacturers, shipowners, managers, and operators looking to prepare their fleets for a safer and greener future. Its purpose is to simply provide support to designers with respect to the current requirements, and it will be amended as may be deemed necessary in accordance with any changes made to the IGF Code by the IMO as well as in consideration of any new technologies introduced in the future.

Description: Since alternative fuels based on LNG, LPG and methanol/ethanol have lower flashpoints than conventional fuel oils,
their usage comes with the increased risk of fire or developing an explosive atmosphere if they are leaked into the ship;
therefore, it is necessary to put in to place well-considered safety measures to mitigate such risks as much as possible.
For this reason, the IMO discussed the development of internationally common safety requirements for ships using gas
or other low-flashpoint fuels, and these discussions led to the adoption of the International Code of Safety for Ships
Using Gases of Other Low-flashpoint Fuels (more commonly referred to as the “IGF Code”) at the 95th Session of the
IMO Maritime Safety Commission (MSC 95) held in June 2015.
the Guidelines will provide practical guidance for shipyards, manufacturers, shipowners, managers, and
operators looking to prepare their fleets for a safer and greener future. Its purpose is to simply provide support to
designers with respect to the current requirements, and it will be amended as may be deemed necessary in accordance
with any changes made to the IGF Code by the IMO as well as in consideration of any new technologies introduced in
