China Delivers Advanced 174,000 cbm LNG Tanker Puteri Johor

with four cargo compartments. The tanker’s dual-fuel, low-speed propulsion system and new-generation insulation reduce daily CO2 emissions by about 10 tons and cut fuel and gas consumption by 10%. The load factor increased from 98% to 98.5%, adding roughly 500 tons of LNG per voyage. The cargo system maintains a temperature of minus 163°C, relying on over a thousand cryogenic valves designed for extreme cold and long service life. Domestic content in China’s LNG tankers has risen to 80%, with the insulation system fully produced locally. Hudong Zhonghua’s order book includes nearly 60 vessels, with production booked through 2030.
