OPERATOR’s DILEMMA
6
RO-PAX “SUPERFAST I” – ATTICA GROUP
Builder : Nuovi Cantieri Apuania, Hull Number 1240
Main design features (in collaboration with N.A.P. Engineering):
o Two (2) separate tanks, Type C. Dimensions: diam 4,8m, length 26m, total capacity 646m3.
o Position of the tanks: Aft open area on Deck 4.
o Loss of cargo capacity: approximately 7 to 8 (16.5) trailers.
o Assumed LNG bunkering frequency: Every round trip voyage
o 9 – 12 months actual equipment construction and delivery to yard.
o 2 – 3 months installation onboard

LNG New Building
Task:
Detailed design for an innovative Ro/Pax ferry:
Attica Newbuilding & Operations Dept : Concept design & requirements
NAP ENGINEERING: Initial / Basic Design
HeLeNGi ENGINEERING: LNG Design Kit
Lloyds Register: Documentation Approval
Deliverable:
Report on LNG as fuel on new building design
Progress: Started beginning of September 2016
10
Detailed design for an innovative Ro/Pax ferry:
A new breed of Ro/Pax Ferry that will incorporate LNG as marine fuel, environmental
friendly solutions and ECO hull shape that will optimize the resistance.

LNG New Building
Innovation:
Dual fuel (LNG + MGO)
ECO Hull & Propeller design
Solar Panels on shelter
Low Consumption
60% More cargo capacity (from previous gen. BS Delos)
Compliance with Safe Return To Port (SRTP) regulation
EEDI requirements (Phase II)
12
Facts regarding the use of LNG as marine fuel :
Capital costs are considerably higher (+ 7 - 10% for new-building vessels)
Shortage of qualified crews
Need for Infrastructure development (LNG bunkering ports, bunkering vessels, safety
considerations, legal framework, survey systems)
Unknown factors : Future pricing of LNG vs. Fuel Oil
13
CONCLUSIONS
How can LNG be widely adopted as marine fuel ?
Price of LNG < Fuel Oil
