Moss-type LNG carrier
A Moss-type LNG carrier is a specialized ship designed to transport liquefied natural gas (LNG) efficiently and safely. It features a distinctive inner tank with a concentric, double-hulled design, facilitating high stability and safety. The "Moss" tank geometry—originally developed by the Moss Rosenberg shipyard—has a hemispherical or prismatic shape that minimizes thermal loss and provides structural strength. This design allows the ship to carry large volumes of LNG at very low temperatures, ensuring safe transport across long distances while maintaining the fluid's quality until it reaches its destination.
