   Ammonia as Marine Fuel: Is the Crew Ready?

   Ammonia as Marine Fuel: Is the Crew Ready? | OSSA LNG An ammonia alarm sounds. The engineers need to understand what the fuel system has done. The bridge needs to know whether propulsion is affected. The crew needs clear instructions. How well would those people work together on their own ship? This OSSA LNG episode explores ammonia as marine fuel through the practical questions facing seafarers, engineers and shipowners. Drawing on the My LNG article by Tadeusz Osowski, Chief Engineer, it examines how equipment, training and working arrangements need to come together before operations begin. IN THIS EPISODE • Ammonia’s toxicity and what it means for crew preparation. • Communication between the machinery space and the bridge. • Emergency drills that reveal problems while there is still time to correct them. • Whether the people available can carry out the duties assigned to them. • Coordination between the ship and its bunker supplier. • The responsibilities of designers, manufacturers, owners and managers. The episode also considers IMO’s interim ammonia training and safety guidelines, while keeping the focus on what those preparations mean during a working watch. For maritime professionals, students and anyone following shipping’s fuel transition, this is a practical look at the people and decisions behind bringing a new fuel into service. Listen for the questions worth asking before the next watch.

   One Ship, Different Clocks: UTC, Alarm Delays & Marine Investigations

   One Ship, Different Clocks: UTC, Alarm Delays & Marine Investigations EPISODE DESCRIPTION What does a timestamp really tell us after a machinery failure? Onboard a ship, local time, UTC and equipment clocks can describe the same moment differently—and an alarm may appear after the event that triggered it. In this episode of OSSA LNG, we explore how marine engineers and accident investigators reconstruct a reliable timeline from machinery logs, alarm histories and recordings. Starting with the decision to retire leap seconds, we examine the practical distinction between the time that organises life onboard and the time used to understand a technical failure. Two documented investigations bring the subject into focus: • Dali: how the US National Transportation Safety Board checked equipment time references and aligned shipboard and shore recordings using a shared recorded event. • Viking Sky: how alarms identifying the reason for generator shutdowns were registered approximately eight seconds after the shutdown alarms, complicating interpretation of the sequence. We also discuss local and UTC timestamps in Kongsberg K-Chief 600 documentation, configured alarm delays, and why the first alarm in a history does not necessarily identify the initiating fault. For marine engineers, electro-technical officers, technical superintendents and LNG professionals, the central question is practical: which event was recorded, against which clock, and at what stage of the sequence?

   The 2 barg LNG Membrane Tank Revolution

   Why Idle LNG Ships Build Pressure: The 2 barg LNG Membrane Tank Revolution Host: MyLNG Engineering Channel: YouTube @ossati Target Audience: Marine engineering students, fleet operators, naval architects, and LNG fuel technology specialists. Episode Summary Welcome to this special educational episode presented by MyLNG Engineering! In this episode, we tackle one of the most pressing operational dilemmas in modern cryogenic fuel management: why idle LNG-fueled ships build vapor pressure in port and how raising membrane fuel tank design pressure from the conventional 0.7 barg threshold up to 2 barg alters the thermodynamic equation. Have you ever wondered why connecting an LNG-fueled vessel to Onshore Power Supply (OPS) can suddenly complicate boil-off gas (BOG) management? Or why increasing a tank's allowable design pressure to 2 barg provides a larger operational window without eliminating thermodynamic heat ingress? We unravel the thermodynamics, structural load requirements under the IGF Code alternative design process, and classification approvals from ClassNK and DNV that every maritime engineer needs to master. Don't forget to subscribe to our YouTube channel @ossati for more deep dives into marine propulsion, LNG containment systems, and machinery space operations! What You Will Learn in This Episode The Port Stay & Shore Power Dilemma: Why switching off auxiliary engines to plug into Onshore Power Supply (OPS) removes primary gas consumers onboard, transforming continuous heat ingress into rapid vapor pressure buildup. Thermodynamics of 0.7 barg vs. 1 barg vs. 2 barg: How increasing allowable relief valve settings (MARVS) from the atmospheric reference of 0.7 barg (~1.7 bar absolute) up to 2 barg (~3 bar absolute) expands the allowable pressure holding window without altering underlying boil-off rates. Alternative Design & Classification Approval: The step-by-step safety equivalence evaluation under the IGF Code required when exceeding 0.7 barg, including structural reinforcement against ~200 kN/m² differential pressure loads, fuel tank domes, gas handling, and hull integration assessed by DNV and ClassNK. Target Applications & Scaling Reality: Why 2 barg membrane containment is tailored for smaller fuel capacities on Pure Car and Truck Carriers (PCTCs), cruise liners (such as Le Commandant Charcot), and container feeders—and how it differs from the 1 barg Mark III Flex systems deployed on ultra-large container ships. Key Engineering Takeaways Pressure Holding is an Operational Envelope: Raising design pressure provides operational flexibility to store warmer bunkered LNG and delay active gas disposal, but it does not stop thermodynamic heat ingress or BOG generation. Shore Power Alters Onboard Energy Balance: Utilizing OPS cuts berth emissions, but requires an approved BOG management strategy (such as dual-fuel boilers or expanded holding time) when engines are offline. Follow Framework & Flag Approval: Exceeding standard 0.7 barg IGF Code limits requires a project-specific alternative design validation with Flag Administration and Classification Society sign-off.
