Excerpt

As a fuel for marine propulsion and onboard power generation, natural gas has proven advantages in terms of NO x and SO x emissions. Given the efficiencies of lean burn gas engines and that natural gas’ prime constituent, methane, is the simplest combination of carbon and hydrogen in the hydro-carbon series, expectations are also high in terms of low greenhouse gas emissions. Classification society DNV-GL and Shell Global Solutions have investigated this aspect on a “well-to-wake” basis. …
