ABS publishes safety insights for ammonia as a fuel
The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) has published the “Safety Insights for Ammonia as a Marine Fuel” report, highlighting findings of ABS research into the performance of ammonia on board.
As stated, ABS performed computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations using tools to quantitatively assess the risks associated with ammonia dispersion in accidental leakage scenarios. Furthermore, engineers examined realistic bunkering situations such as ship-to-ship, terminal-to-ship and truck-to-ship, as well as ammonia dispersion from the vessel due to a leakage incident in the engine room.
While the use of ammonia as a marine fuel is new, the seaborne transportation of ammonia as
