        由中国江南造船厂为Petredec Holdings (Eastern) PTE建造的一艘93,000立方米的LPG船，采用双燃料LPG推进器，已经完成海试。

        该船是Petredec在该船厂订购的总共6艘93,000立方米的LPG船中的第一艘。

        该造船厂表示，9天的试航期是该厂双燃料液化气船试航记录中最短的一次，该厂共获得了48艘该类型船舶的订单。

        这次试航标志着江南造船厂在建造液化气船的历史上首次实现了 "三合一 "的试航。这意味着常规海试、气试和气测同时完成。

        此举是由于该造船厂旨在加快建造进程，以实现每年交付11艘VLGC的目标。

        由江南公司设计的 "熊猫 "级93k cbm船舶，采用了先进的技术，与船级社DNV合作，提高船体效率，降低消耗。

        这些船舶还将安装轴式发电机，使用液化石油气提供海上辅助动力，进一步提高其绿色证书。

        该型船总长230米，模宽36.6米，航速16.5节。它采用第四代专利线型（VS-Bow MK-IV），可在不同比重的满载、压载和液货装载条件下使用。

        通过向MAN ES LGIP发动机提供液化石油气作为船用燃料，Petredec的目标是到2030年实现二氧化碳排放量减少40%。

        这些船舶计划于2023年交付。

Petredec’s dual-fuel LPG carrier returns from sea trials

A 93,000 cbm LPG carrier with dual fuel LPG propulsion, being built by China’s Jiangnan Shipyard, for Petredec Holdings (Eastern) PTE, has returned from sea trials.

The vessel is the first of a total of six 93,000 cbm LPG vessels Petredec has on order at the yard.

The shipbuilder said that the 9-day sea trial period was the shortest trial on record for a dual-fuel liquefied gas ship at the yard, which has secured a total of 48 orders for this type of vessel.

This sea trial marks the first instance of a “three-in-one” sea trial in the history of Jiangnan Shipbuilding for the construction of liquefied gas carriers. This means that the conventional sea trial, gas trial, and gas test were completed simultaneously.

The move was pursued as the shipbuilder aims to accelerate the construction process to meet the annual delivery target of 11 VLGCs.

The Panda-class 93k cbm vessel, designed by Jiangnan, features advanced technology to improve hull efficiency and lower consumption, in conjunction with classification society DNV.

The vessels will also be fitted with a shaft generator to use LPG to provide the auxiliary power at sea, further enhancing their green credentials.

This type of ship has a total length of 230 meters, a molded width of 36.6 meters, and a service speed of 16.5 knots. It adopts the fourth-generation patented line type ( VS-Bow MK-IV ), which can be used under full load, ballast and liquid cargo loading conditions of different specific gravity.

By bunkering LPG as a marine fuel to MAN ES LGIP engines, Petredec aims to achieve up to 40% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030.

The vessels are scheduled for delivery in 2023.
