  • Patent number: 11724789
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a BOG reliquefaction method for LNG ships. The BOG reliquefaction method for LNG ships includes: 1) compressing BOG; 2) cooling the BOG compressed in Step 1) through heat exchange between the compressed BOG and a refrigerant using a heat exchanger; 3) expanding the BOG cooled in Step 2); and 4) stably maintaining reliquefaction performance regardless of change in flow rate of the BOG compressed in Step 1) and supplied to the heat exchanger to be used as a reliquefaction target.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20170217554
    Abstract: A fuel supply control system and control method are disclosed. In a fuel supply control system of a high-pressure gas injection engine provided in a ship or an offshore structure, the fuel supply control system of the present invention includes: a gas supply mode for supplying gas to the high-pressure gas injection engine through a gas supplying part for receiving LNG from a storage tank so as to compress and vaporize the LNG; and an oil supply mode for supplying oil as fuel to the high-pressure gas injection engine, wherein the mode is switched into the oil supply mode during an emergency including a device malfunction in the gas supply mode such that the oil supply mode can be configured as a redundancy of the gas supply mode.
