The LNG shipping sector faces increasing pressure to improve efficiency, reduce emissions, and manage complex cargo conditions.

In response, Danelec has introduced an innovative suite of tools designed to optimize Boil-Off Gas (BOG) management, enhancing both sustainability and profitability for LNG carriers.

Watch the demo below, where our Product Manager, Conor, showcases how Danelec's Setpoint Simulation can revolutionize LNGC operations, helping operators predict voyage outcomes and optimize key parameters:

Managing the temperature and pressure of LNG cargoes over long voyages presents significant challenges. With traditional methods relying on manual observation and fixed setpoints, operators often miss opportunities to optimize fuel efficiency and cargo delivery. Danelec’s new solution aims to change this by offering advanced data-driven insights and real-time recommendations for LNGC operations.

Voyage plan setpoint and cargo setup

Leveraging cutting-edge digital twin simulations, Danelec's toolset enables vessel operators to predict changes in cargo condition and adjust operational setpoints dynamically. This reduces unnecessary fuel consumption, maximizes cargo delivery, and ensures voyages remain on schedule.

Key Features of Danelec’s Boil-Off Gas Solution:

  • Real-Time Data Insights: Predictive analytics help operators adjust BOG usage for optimal fuel consumption and cargo management.
  • Digital Twin Simulations: High-fidelity simulations provide a detailed understanding of voyage conditions, weather forecasts, vessel speed, and more.
  • BOG Management: Operators can now make informed decisions about using BOG as fuel or re-liquefying it, contributing to fuel savings of up to 4.7% per voyage, potentially saving over $360,000 per vessel annually.
  • Collaboration Across the Value Chain: Danelec’s platform fosters closer cooperation between vessel owners, charterers, and cargo operators by centralizing data and enhancing decision-making transparency.
