Description
この発明は液化天然ガス(LNG)の海上輸送に関する。 This invention relates to marine transportation of liquefied natural gas (LNG).
LNGは、燃焼時に窒素酸化物や亜硫酸ガスの排出量が少ないため、クリーンエネルギーとして年々需要が増大している。LNGは天然ガスを-160℃ほどに冷却して液化したものであり、これを海上輸送するLNG運搬船のタンクは広範囲の温度変化に耐えられるよう低温材料を使用し、温度差による熱収縮・熱応力を考慮した構造を備えている。また、LNG運搬船は高速・大量輸送の使命を担うため、20ノット前後の航海速力を備えているのが普通であり、船体は大型化の傾向があり、タンク容量200,000m3を越えるものが現在計画されている。 Since LNG emits less nitrogen oxide and sulfurous acid gas during combustion, demand for LNG is increasing year by year as clean energy. LNG is a natural gas cooled to about -160 ° C and liquefied, and the tank of the LNG carrier that transports this gas at sea uses low-temperature materials to withstand a wide range of temperature changes. It has a structure that takes stress into consideration. Further, since the LNG carrier is responsible for mission speed and mass transportation, 20 is normal to and a voyage speed before and after the knots, the hull will tend to increase in size, which exceeds the tank capacity 200,000M 3 NOW Is planned.
従来のLNG運搬船では、それに搭載されるLNGタンクは大きく2つのタイプに分けられ、一つが球形独立タンク方式であり、もう一つがメンブレン方式である(例えば、米国特許5697312号、同7137345号)。 In a conventional LNG carrier, LNG tanks mounted on the LNG carrier are roughly divided into two types, one is a spherical independent tank system, and the other is a membrane system (for example, US Pat. Nos. 5,697,312 and 7,137,345).
球形独立タンク方式は、アルミ合金で作られた球形タンクを、その赤道部から下に延びるスカート状の支持構造を介して船倉内に据え付けるものである。このタンクでは、その中に積載した液荷の重量および、船の動揺によって液荷に作用する動的な力はすべてタンク自体で担い、スカートを介して船体に伝えるようになっている。タンクの防熱材は、もちろん、タンクの外面に設けられる。 In the spherical independent tank system, a spherical tank made of an aluminum alloy is installed in the hold through a skirt-like support structure extending downward from its equator. In this tank, the weight of the liquid loaded therein and the dynamic force acting on the liquid loaded by the ship's sway are all carried by the tank itself and transmitted to the hull via the skirt. The heat insulating material for the tank is, of course, provided on the outer surface of the tank.
船倉の形状はほぼ箱型であるので、そこに球形タンクを収めた場合、球形タンクの周りに無駄なスペースが生じるのは避け難い。このため、球形独立タンク方式は、船体の大きさの割りに、タンク容積が小さいという欠点がある。 Since the shape of the hold is almost box-shaped, if a spherical tank is housed there, it is inevitable that a useless space is created around the spherical tank. For this reason, the spherical independent tank system has a drawback that the tank volume is small for the size of the hull.
他方、メンブレン方式タンクは、船体の二重船殻構造の内側に防熱材を設け、その表面をメンブレンで液密に覆ったものである。この方式のタンクでは、LNGの液圧が防熱材を介して船体構造に伝えられる。メンブレンにはステンレス鋼や熱膨張係数の小さなニッケル合金(インバー)が用いられる。 On the other hand, the membrane tank is provided with a heat insulating material inside the double hull structure of the hull, and its surface is liquid-tightly covered with a membrane. In this type of tank, the liquid pressure of LNG is transmitted to the hull structure via a heat insulating material. The membrane is made of stainless steel or a nickel alloy (Invar) with a small thermal expansion coefficient.
このメンブレン方式のタンクは、船倉に沿った形状に作ることができるので、タンクスペースが大きく取れ、容積効率がよい。しかし、船体前部の痩せた部分では、タンクが変則的な形状になるので、建造工事に手間がかかるという欠点がある。また、メンブレンタンクの形状は方形が基本であり、それからあまり隔たった形状にすることが難しい。このため、最前部のタンクが収まる部分の船体形状はU字断面がせいぜいで、高速時の造波抵抗を小さくするために、V字型のような余り痩せた形状にすることができない。 Since this membrane-type tank can be made in a shape along the hold, the tank space can be increased and the volumetric efficiency is good. However, since the tank has an irregular shape in the thin part of the front part of the hull, there is a drawback that it takes time for construction work. In addition, the shape of the membrane tank is basically a square, and it is difficult to make the shape far away from it. For this reason, the shape of the hull of the portion where the foremost tank is accommodated has a U-shaped cross section at most, and in order to reduce the wave-making resistance at high speed, it cannot be made a very thin shape such as a V shape.
メンブレン方式のタンクは、積荷が半積状態のときに荒天に遭遇すると、スロッシング(sloshing)といって、船体動揺によりタンク内の液荷が激しく波立ち、その衝撃でメンブレンや防熱材が損傷を受けることがある。球形タンクでは、タンク壁が曲面なので衝撃を受け流すことができ、また、防熱材がタンクの外側にあるので、スロッシングはほとんど問題にならない。したがって、メンブレン方式のタンクについては、積荷のLNGが波立たないように、タンクをいつも満載あるいはそれに近い状態に保っておくことが要請される。 Membrane-type tanks are called sloshing when they encounter stormy weather when the load is half-loaded, and the liquid load in the tank swells violently due to the shaking of the hull, and the impact damages the membrane and the heat insulating material. Sometimes. In a spherical tank, the tank wall is curved, so that it can receive impacts, and since the heat shield is outside the tank, sloshing is hardly a problem. Therefore, with respect to the membrane tank, it is required to keep the tank at a full load or close to it so that the LNG of the cargo does not wave.
球形、メンブレンのいずれの形式においても、LNGタンク内では、防熱が施されていてもタンクへの入熱は避けられないので、積荷のLNGからボイルオフガス(BOG)が発生し、タンク内圧が徐々に上昇し、LNGの液温も上昇する。そこで、LNG船では、発生したボイルオフガスをコンプレッサで吸引し、ボイラ等の燃焼装置に送って燃焼させる。燃焼で生じたエネルギーは、船の推進等に利用される。一日あたりのボイルオフ率は、タンクの防熱性能によって変わってくるが、大体0.10〜0.25%の範囲である。このようにLNG船ではボイルオフが起こるので、タンク内に積載された液荷の量は日数が経つにしたがって少しずつ減少して来る。このため、メンブレン方式のタンクでは、積地を出航してから日数が経つにしたがって、スロッシングが起きやすくなる。 In both sphere and membrane types, heat input to the tank is inevitable even if heat protection is provided in the LNG tank, so boil-off gas (BOG) is generated from the load LNG, and the tank internal pressure gradually increases. The liquid temperature of LNG also rises. Therefore, in the LNG ship, the generated boil-off gas is sucked by a compressor and sent to a combustion device such as a boiler for combustion. The energy generated by the combustion is used for ship propulsion and the like. The boil-off rate per day varies depending on the thermal insulation performance of the tank, but is generally in the range of 0.10 to 0.25%. As described above, since boil-off occurs in the LNG ship, the amount of liquid loaded in the tank gradually decreases as the number of days passes. For this reason, in a membrane tank, sloshing tends to occur as the number of days elapses after leaving the loading area.
この発明は、タンクの容積効率が優れ、建造が容易なLNGタンカーを提供することを課題とする。また、メンブレン方式タンクのスロッシングを低減することを課題とする。 It is an object of the present invention to provide an LNG tanker that is excellent in tank volumetric efficiency and easy to construct. Another object is to reduce the sloshing of the membrane tank.
この発明は、LNGを積載するタンクが、最前部に配置される球形独立式タンクと、その後に続く複数のメンブレン方式タンクとで構成されるLNG運搬船を提供する。このものではLNGタンクの大部分がメンブレン方式のタンクで構成されるので、容積効率が優れ、船の大きさの割りに大きなタンク容積を得ることができる。 The present invention provides an LNG carrier in which a tank for loading LNG is composed of a spherical independent tank disposed in the forefront and a plurality of subsequent membrane tanks. In this case, most of the LNG tank is constituted by a membrane tank, so that the volumetric efficiency is excellent and a large tank volume can be obtained for the size of the ship.
最前部のタンクは船体前部のやせた部分に位置するので、これをメンブレン方式タンクとした場合、タンク形状が変則的な形状となり、防熱やメンブレンの施工工事が大変面倒になる。この発明では、最前部のタンクをメンブレンでなく球形独立式タンクとしたので、球形タンクを地上で組み立てて、船内に搭載するだけで済むので、建造工事が極めて容易になり、工期も短縮することができる。また、球形タンクの場合、船体断面形状がV字型のように痩せているところにも収まるので、船首部をファインにして高速に適した形状にすることが可能になる。 Since the foremost tank is located in the thin part of the front part of the hull, when this is used as a membrane tank, the tank shape becomes irregular, which makes the construction of heat insulation and membrane very troublesome. In this invention, the foremost tank is not a membrane but a spherical independent tank, so it is only necessary to assemble the spherical tank on the ground and mount it on the ship, making the construction work extremely easy and shortening the construction period. Can do. Further, in the case of a spherical tank, the hull cross-sectional shape can be accommodated in a thin shape like a V-shape, so that it is possible to make the bow portion fine and to have a shape suitable for high speed.
また、この発明は、LNGを積載するタンクを、メンブレン方式タンクと球形独立式タンクの2種類のタンクで構成し、輸送中、独立式タンク内のLNGをメンブレン式タンクに移送することを特徴とするLNGの海上輸送方法を提供する。この方法によれば、輸送中にボイルオフガスとして失われる液量を補って、メンブレン式タンクを満載状態に保持することができ、メンブレン式タンクをスロッシング問題から解放することができる。 Further, according to the present invention, the tank for loading LNG is composed of two types of tanks, a membrane tank and a spherical independent tank, and the LNG in the independent tank is transferred to the membrane tank during transportation. A method for sea transport of LNG is provided. According to this method, the amount of liquid lost as boil-off gas during transportation can be compensated, and the membrane tank can be held in a full state, and the membrane tank can be released from the sloshing problem.
図1および図2に示すように、このLNGタンカーは、前から、船首部10、タンク区画12、機関室14、船尾部16の順で連なっており、機関室の上に居住区18さらに操舵室20が設けられている。タンク区画12は横隔壁22によって複数の区画に仕切られており、最前部区画23には球形独立式タンク24が納められており、2番目から5番目の区画内にはそれぞれメンブレン式タンク26が形成されている。
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, this LNG tanker is connected in order of the
図3はメンブレン式タンクの横断面図であり、船体は船底および船側共に二重船殻構造になっており、それら内殻28の表面に防熱30を施し、防熱の表面をメンブレン32で液密に覆うことでメンブレン式タンク26が形成される。各メンブレン式タンク26は、タンク容量を増やすため、頭部が上甲板34を貫いて上に突出しており、そのタンク頭部はトランクデッキ36で覆われている。
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the membrane tank. The hull has a double hull structure on the bottom and the ship side.
図4は球形独立式タンクを備えた最前部区画の横断面図である。球形タンク24は、その赤道部から下に延びるスカート40を付けた状態に地上で組み立てられ、船内に組み込まれる。該スカート40の下端は船体二重底で支持される。球形タンク24の上部は上甲板34の上にはみ出しており、この突出部分はドーム型のタンクカバー42で覆われる。
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the foremost compartment with a spherical independent tank. The
図4と比較するために、最前部タンク区画23に球形独立式タンクではなくメンブレン式タンクを設けた場合を示したのが図5である。最前部タンク区画は船体が痩せているので、その中に形成されるメンブレンタンク26は、鎖線44で示すように、前に行くほどタンク幅が狭くなる。このためタンクが変則的な形状になり、工事が複雑で手間がかかる。これに対し、球形タンク24は地上で組立てて、船体に組み込むことができるので、複雑な構造のメンブレンタンクを船内作業で作るのに比べて、工事が容易で、工期も短くて済む。
For comparison with FIG. 4, FIG. 5 shows a case where a membrane tank is provided in the
また、図5で分かるように、メンブレン式タンクは構造上、ほぼ方形に近い形状であり、これを収める部分の船体断面はあまり痩せた(ファインな)形状にすることができない。これに対して図4では、タンクが球形であり、しかもタンクがやや高い位置にあるので、船体断面形状をV字にしてかなり痩せた船型内に収めることが可能である。このため、最前部タンクをメンブレン式タンクでなく球形独立タンクにした場合、船首部をファインな形状にして高速域における船の推進抵抗を小さくすることができる。 Further, as can be seen from FIG. 5, the membrane tank is structurally nearly square, and the cross section of the hull that accommodates the membrane tank cannot have a very thin (fine) shape. On the other hand, in FIG. 4, since the tank is spherical and the tank is at a slightly higher position, the hull cross-sectional shape can be made into a V shape and can be accommodated in a very thin ship shape. For this reason, when the foremost tank is not a membrane tank but a spherical independent tank, it is possible to reduce the propulsion resistance of the ship in a high speed range by making the bow part fine.
このLNGタンカーは、積地において、タンクの種類に拘わらず、全タンクにLNGを満載する。揚地に向かって航海中、各LNGタンクには外から熱が侵入するので、ボイルオフガスが連続的に発生し、タンク内に溜まる。このガスを放置しておくと、タンク内の温度および内圧が徐々に高くなって危険である。そこで、従来からLNGタンカーでは、図6に示すように、各タンク内に溜まったボイルオフガス(BOG)をコンプレッサ46でタンクの外に吸引してやり、各LNGタンク内の温度と圧力を適正に保つようにする。コンプレッサでタンクの外に吸引した天然ガスは、加温した後、ボイラ48で燃焼させる。ボイラで発生した蒸気は、タービンを駆動し、船の推進力や船内電力として利用される。
This LNG tanker is full of LNG in all tanks regardless of the type of tank in the loading area. During voyage toward the landing site, heat enters the LNG tanks from the outside, so boil-off gas is continuously generated and accumulated in the tanks. If this gas is left unattended, the temperature and internal pressure in the tank gradually increase, which is dangerous. Therefore, in the conventional LNG tanker, as shown in FIG. 6, the boil-off gas (BOG) accumulated in each tank is sucked out of the tank by the
こうして、各タンクで発生したBOGはタンクの外に排出されるので、各タンクの液量はわずかであるが徐々に減っていく。航海が長期間にわたると、液量の減少が顕著になり、メンブレン式タンクでは荒天時にスロッシングが危惧されるようになる。この発明のLNGタンカーでは、球形独立式タンク24の液荷(LNG)をタンク付きのポンプ50で送り出し、これを管52を通じて他のタンクに移送し、メンブレン式タンク26の液量をほぼ満載状態またはそれに近い状態に回復させてやる。こうしてやれば、荒天に遭遇した場合でも、スロッシングが生じにくくなり、スロッシングによるメンブレン式タンクの損傷を未然に防ぐことができる。他方、移送によって球形独立式タンク24の液量は徐々に減少していくが、前述のように、球形独立式タンクではスロッシングの問題は生じない。
Thus, the BOG generated in each tank is discharged to the outside of the tank, so that the amount of liquid in each tank is gradually reduced. Over the long voyage, the decrease in liquid volume becomes significant, and sloshing is a concern during stormy weather in membrane tanks. In the LNG tanker of the present invention, the liquid load (LNG) in the spherical
