Abstract
LNG is being spotlighted as a clean marine fuel because of recent trend in reinforcement of marine environmental regulation. In this paper, demand prospect of LNG bunkering for Ulsan port is carried out to analgize the possibility of commercialization of floating LNG bunkering terminal. Environmental analysis for LNG bunkering and LNG bunkering trends of competitive ports in the world are considered to draw out the prospection of LNG bunkering demand in Ulsan. As a result, car carrie and oil carrier were expected to have more possibility in switching to LNG fuelled ship. The LNG bunkering demand in Ulsan. As a result, car carrier and oil carrier were expected to have more possibility in switching to LNG fuelled ship. The LNG bunkering demand in Ulsan port was expected to be about from 650,000 ton to 900,000 ton in 2030 and Ulsan port is prospected to be a good port for FLBT business in th future.
LNG는 최근 해양 환경 규제 강화로 인해 친환경 선박 연료로 각광받고 있다. 본 연구에는, 해상 부유식 LNG 벙커링 터미널의 상업화 가능성을 분석하기 위해 울산항 LNG 벙커링 수요 전망을 조사하였다. LNG 벙커링 환경 분석과 전 세계 경쟁항만의 LNG벙커링 동향을 통하여 울산항의 LNG 벙커링 전망을 도출하였다. 연구결과, 정기운항을 하는 울산항의 자동차 운반선과 원유운반선은 LNG 연료 선박으로 전환될 가능성이 높고 울산항의 LNG 벙커링 수요는 2030년 650,000톤에서 900,000톤 규모로 예상되므로 울산항은 향후 국내 FLBT 시범사업에 적합한 항구가 될 것이라 예상된다.
