Guidelines for Safe Hydrogen Bunkering
In this webinar, MTF members will provide an overview of the latest MTF report, Guidelines for the Development of Liquefied Hydrogen Bunkering Systems and Procedures, which explores the challenges and opportunities associated with hydrogen as marine fuel and as a maritime cargo, identifying design and functional implications and limitations.
Join us to hear from the publication's authors who will share the key observations and findings from the report, including:
- The properties of hydrogen, and in particular the very low temperature of liquified hydrogen, mean that experience gained from bunkering arrangements for liquid natural gas, LNG, cannot be re-used directly.
- The bunkering process will be more complex than it is for LNG, since no nitrogen can be present inside the piping systems when liquified hydrogen is introduced, as this will freeze and clog the systems.
- The material choices and need for more insulated components and piping will also be slightly different.
- The development of vessel-specific procedures for bunkering operations, such as more automated bunkering procedures, will be necessary.
- The added complexities will mean that the need for crew training and certification is of even higher importance than for other bunkering processes.
- The Safety Management Systems should be updated to cater for the additional safety aspects with liquified hydrogen bunkering, as outlined in another work carried out by MTF, ‘Guidelines to develop and implement Safety Management System for alternative fuels onboard ships’.
