Oil: The marine fuel of the future!
From 1880s unAl 1950s coal was the principal fuel for Great Lakes vessels.
Special built coal docks were common around the Great Lakes.
A fuel oil supply chain had to be developed to provide oil to the vessels.

Vessel conversion to use oil was expensive and Ame consuming
At the start of 1954 the William G. Mather entered the shipyards of Manitowoc Shipbuilding. The vessel’s coal-‐fired boilers and quadruple expansion steam engine were removed and replaced by a steam turbine engine. Her steam auxiliaries were replaced with electric ones along with the enAre electrical system being updated.
Installing new fuel oil storage tanks in the SS William G. Mather At the same Ame building new coal fired vessels! SS Badger and SS Spartan

Common Methods to Reduce Emissions in TransportaAon Systems
• Modal shiX to more energy efficient mode – Supply chain issues ~ speed, unit size – Infrastructure issues
• Larger loads to reduce energy per ton-‐mile – Supply chain issues ~ speed, unit size – not air – Infrastructure issues
• Reduce speed = reduced energy consumpAon – Supply chain issues ~ speed
• Clean what comes out of the stack – CatalyAc converters, scrubbers ~ waste, costs, efficiency
• Change the fuel type that goes into the engine – Availability, BTU content, cost

Emissions reducAons: A driver of change
![Page 6: Stewart - Reducing Emissions in the Marine Transportation Sector](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052504/547d0b9d5906b53e378b45f9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Vessels need to reduce air emissions

Carrier opAons to meet emissions regulaAons

Lower BTU = more to go same distance Just one factor to consider!
![Page 10: Stewart - Reducing Emissions in the Marine Transportation Sector](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052504/547d0b9d5906b53e378b45f9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What is Natural Gas?
Most gases except Methane stripped out as they have value:
![Page 11: Stewart - Reducing Emissions in the Marine Transportation Sector](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052504/547d0b9d5906b53e378b45f9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Boiling Point of Gases not the same
This makes it easy to strip out non-‐methane gases with liquefacAon
![Page 12: Stewart - Reducing Emissions in the Marine Transportation Sector](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052504/547d0b9d5906b53e378b45f9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Is all Natural Gas the same?
![Page 13: Stewart - Reducing Emissions in the Marine Transportation Sector](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052504/547d0b9d5906b53e378b45f9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
So what does the Methane Number mean?
Supplier delivers what you need for your engines: 70 MN considered minimum for most internal combusAon engines

Do I use CNG or LNG???? • Compressed natural gas – Unlikely for vessels
– Must be compressed – cost – ini9al and long term – High pressure containment – 4500 PSI – Lower BTU content for same volume – High pressure, asphyxiant and flammability safety issues
• Liquefied natural gas – Must be liquefied –cost-‐ ini9al and long term – Cryogenic Stored at Minus 160 degrees cen9grade – Stored at low pressure 3.6 – 6 PSI – Higher BTU content for same volume – Cryogenic, asphyxiant, however non toxic not flammable as a liquid
– The selecAon of CNG or LNG is very case specific!

What about Engines? Two Types
• Dual Fuel • Fuel Flexibility Diesel, Gas, HFO or mix • Requires more sophisticated controls • Fuel savings limited by need for diesel • Durability similar to diesel
• Spark Ignited • Expected to meet Tier 4 standards without after treatment • Simple and proven engine controls • Durability better than diesel • Slower response than diesel • Needs a reliable gas supply

BNSF Main Line LNG Powered Engines 1991-‐1996 Conversions worked 1600 mile coal route -‐ 800 mile range
1. Economical 1. BN determined that natural gas to provide a 10% to 20% cost savings over DO 2. Es9mated it could save $200 million a year in fuel if it converted its en9re locomo9ve fleet of engines 3. Using natural gas reduces engine maintenance costs 4. It is es9mated that engine life cycle can be improved by as much as 40 percent 5. “engines can go 2 to 3 9mes as long between lubrica9ons, oil, and filter changes.”
2. Not adopted because LNG supply chain not mature 3. Experiments done prior to current discovery of natural gas reserves

Short Haul Locomo9ve Pacific Harbor Line Inc. Long Beach/LA
Why it worked well… • LNG locomo9ve cost
approximately 23% less to fuel on an energy-‐equivalent basis
• EmiTed an es9mated 81% less oxides of nitrogen (NOx) & 57% less par9culate maTer (PM) compared to new Tier 2 locomo9ve
Why it didn’t work so well… • Logis9cs & mechanical issues
associated with fueling nega9vely impacted the locomo9ve’s service capability – Needed to be refueled every 3 days
compared to once a week – Lacked a reliable fuel gauge – Difficult requirements imposed by
the local fire department • Extra labor during fueling • Fee paid to LAPD for fire inspector
– Out of service approximately 15-‐20% more oien than the diesel fleet due to refueling
– Low main air pressure, failed spark plug transformer
Experiments on 1200 HP Switch Engine 2008-2009
