GTT launches boil-off gas monitoring system

GTT, the French designer of LNG containment systems, informed it has launched a new boil-off gas (BOG) monitoring system, LNG Advisor.

LNG Advisor will provide on-board crews and onshore teams with “real-time data” on the energy performance of the LNG ship, GTT said in a statement on Thursday.

“The system automatically monitors the engine and the gas combustion unit consumptions of boil-off gas, marine diesel oil and heavy fuel oil as well as the natural and forced BOG during navigation,” the company said.

Other parameters such as the tank vapor pressure, the ship cruising speed and the ship motions are also monitored, according to GTT.

LNG Advisor will be marketed by Cryometrics, a GTT’s fully owned subsidiary, being currently incorporated.
