ABS releases new study on potential for nuclear-powered LNG carriers

ABS, which has a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) contract to research barriers to the adoption of advanced nuclear propulsion on commercial vessels, has released a new report on the potential of nuclear technology for maritime. It focuses on the potential for a nuclear-powered LNG carrier fitted with a small modular reactor.

The study looks at the impact of a high-temperature, gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) on the design, operation and emissions of a 145,000 cubic meter LNG carrier. The design was...
