- A quick view of an Engine Room of an LNG Vessel with Electric Propulsion.
Before you complain about the shaky video: The use of regular cameras and phones is prohibited inside the engine room of an LNG carrier. This video was filmed using an explosion proof ATEX certified camera. This camera has poor performance and no stabilization. Being used to my iPhone camera and stabilization, combined with the fact that I was in a rush, caused this shaky video.
Could have been a great video. I had to turn it off as I was getting sick.
There's a difference between quick and concise and this. You had the desire to make the video but no care went into it. You move way too quickly, if I wanted to see a bunch of white pipe I'd goto a plumbing supply house and wander around the warehouse. That's about all anyone got from this. And your commentary about someone else can edit the video, editing wouldn't have made this any better. Shoot a good video and straight upload it.
2 minutes in a had to turn it off
Too speed ... we can't see anything ... man I!
As complex as any heavy industrial plant, yet so spotlessly clean! Many thanks for this. 😃
You don't know how to handel a camera !!! we can't see anything......
Wow! Huge expansive room...thanks for the overrview!
Can’t watch any more of this. Shocking camera work.
Now that the dramamine has kicked in after watching this video, nice effort. As a video pro, it'd be better to be more fluid with the camera like a SteadyCam setup. It can be done, even with a cell phone. A little practice using your arm and body movements together, you'd be surprised! I'd also title (if possible) most of the equipment in the engine room you tried to show, the more detail the better (for me anyway) All the support equipment just to get the prop to rotate is mind boggling. But thanks for the video, most of us will never see this in person so it's always a treat for the mechanically curious people like us that view this.
It looks like a fly took this video.
Shit I think Im going to be sea sick, watching this camera movement.
It's on a boat after all. Some people do get seasick lol.
this video was filmed for mariners, people with tough stomach
Way too much movement!!!
like strapping a go pro to a puppys head
Thank you for sharing. But those 6.6kV switchboards make me think. And then all that LNG. That is nothing to joke with.
Just wandering around looking at miscellaneous ship.
The reasons these videos are rushed is the person taking them is not supposed to be there, they are taken after hours when the Engine room is only accessible from one entrance the Engineers deck
No Clear view of the prime mover and Alternators to Drive Motors! Otherwise It was a nice view everything Else!
CLEAN ENG ROOM PITY YOU DIDNT STOP JUST TO POINT OUT THE NAME TAGS TO SHOW WHERE YOU WERE
What I first noticed is the cleanliness of the ship -- from living quarters to the engine room. Even the machine shop was tidy. The racks in the parts store are constructed for rough seas.
I know nothing about electric ship propulsion. I assume that the ship's cargo of LNG fuels duel-fuel (LNG gas / fuel oil) engines (13:26), which drive electric generators, which in turn drive the electric motors that actually propel the ship.
I spent 1 year on an LNG ship and never got sea sick. I had to turn this thing off after 4 minutes due to sudden onset sea sickness. Horrible video. You filmed it to remember and we're watching it to remember. Can you film another?? S L O W Wow, we do keeep those babies shining though don't we. Makes me miss those days so much. So proud to be on the jewel of the merchant fleet. Thanks anyway.
Pourquoi le cameraman agite sans arrêt sa caméra, dommage on a le temps de rien voir.
Is there not ANYONE there who can record a video that is watchable?🤮
Im deadly sure that the cleanliness of this ship is well maintained by RATINGS ordered by ENGINEER.
Thank you.
Where is the LNG tank?
Very nice tour thanks.
Interesting! I was impressed by how clean everything is, with no leaks and oil spots here and there. I had no idea that everywhere below was so loud! I was also impressed by what appears easy access to the equipment instead of stuck in cubby holes with restricted access for maintance. There is so much stuff in the engine room and below decks. Is it always this loud?
Is the crew supposed to know all about each piece of equipment? Is this a new ship?

Great tour!
This might have been a good video if you hadn’t been recording with a camera on a string! Instant headache!
I have been on board this type of ship before. I am a seafarer by the way. I enjoy working on a type of ship like this. Less maintenance and there is no too much of noice. Anyway, can you make the a better video next time, because i have a headache already watching this.
OK . I LIKE because it is a detailed tour of interesting ship places that I will never ever see....! Thank you. My critique is same as others... video is a bit shaky and a lot of "floor gazing" time.
Lacking expert narration by an engineer, what could have been a well organized tour of an amazing piece of technology, this video was a completely wasted 36 minutes. Oh, and the camera work sucked as well.
Gave me a migraine watching it. Nice video but please keep the camera steady pleaseeee
No one on board would know when the ship detonated. They would be doing their job and in the next milisecond they would be vaporized.
Been in engine rooms and i still dont know what i am looking at, i even have been in boiler rooms and seen more. Must have a rough sea.
What is the best part of electric propulsion? Is it strong enough to face bad weather condition? I think the current will raise rapidly into the limit and the rpm need to be reduce.
YT has a feature where you can take the shake out of it, if you want... I can't watch any more, getting sick!
thank you for the info. I just did it, edits are now in progress from the youtube servers. I hope it will make a difference.
Thanks, it's much better!
sweet, 4 stroke engines! btw great tour! : )
Watching this gave me a headache. You have to slow down, make slow sweeps with the camera. It’s so choppy that I couldn’t watch this.
Very poor camera guidance, focus flickers back and forth. A camera requires a calm hand
A landlubber here, I liked this video. Very different than the bunker oil fuelled ships. I'd be scared with LNG and electricity. What do the chimes mean?
Thank you for video. It is really interesting engine room. I have experience on mega container vessels and had a deal with shaft generators and its frequency converters but those ones I see in the video are very attractive. Now I have to dream to work on such a type of vessel. May be do you have instruction manuals for all machinery equipment of the vessel?
Thank you for your comment.
But unfortunately I can not help you with the manuals, they are confidential and I am not allowed to share them.
I hope you can understand.
@@sasiskas Ok, I understand. But, I hope, can you tell me please what kind of switching element is used in rectifier (for such drives it sopposed to be used active rectifier) and inverter unit phase module? All interface, control and protective PCBs are interconnected via optical links? And what is the power for each drive.
For example I met such a phase module in INU, whose main components are:
4 IGCTs (Integrated Gate Commutated Thyristor)
4 integrated freewheeling diodes parallel to IGCTs because of low power
2 Neutral point diodes divide DC voltage equally across IGCTs
2 clamping diodes
2 clamping capacitors (clamping resistors and balancing resistors are mounted
separately, outside of the phase module).
I am just wondering about what kind of topology in that propulsion sysstem is used.
Must be late for dinner seems to be in a rush...
This video could have been made more informative / educational if the machinery or equipment shown are labeled for the sake of students or even those doing apprentice ship tours.
I want to go there and press every button i find.
Yes it's very cool
Interesting. But this one would definitely have been much better at a slower pace. And some effort made to identify what we were looking at. Thanks tho.
Fast forward more
Poor video champ, you need to slow it down a bit and stop the shaking.
Not very big on water tight doors, are we. On my ship you could not go twenty feet without another watertight door.
Dude, you really need hold the camera steady and make only slow turns/pans. At what time stamp on tge video are you actually looking at an engine or engines turning generators for the electric propulsion motors?
You could have laid off the zoom on the camcorder.
I think the puppy carrying the camera is lost, jus sayin.
Maybe next time, don't have the epileptic hold the camera.
Das Video wäre interessant, wenn die Kameraführung nicht so abartig wäre. So bringt es gar nichts, man sieht nichts und wenn man was sehen könnte, ist es verwackelt. Schade.
Was you in a hurry ?
I do not understand, why electric propulsion? I bet the motors are greater than 90 percent efficient, not sure about the generators. But in the end, no matter how efficient they are, it requires less fuel to run conventional system. Maybe initial cost savings by not having auxiliary engines? But I suspect there is some underlying reason that has to do with the ship being lng type. Pleas explain, if you know reason.
Thanks for the tour, most interesting.
You are right, it requires less fuel to run a conventional system...BUT you can not use natural gas as a fuel on conventional systems. The whole point in LNG vessels is to be able to use the boil off (natural gas) of the cargo as fuel for the propulsion of the ship.
In the past the only way to use natural gas as a fuel, was to combine boilers and steam turbines, a system like that was totally inefficient. So this is why the electric propulsion was introduced, it offers the ability to use natural gas as a fuel and has better efficiency that the steam turbines.
Recently MAN has developed two-stoke main engines that can use natural gas fuel. These engines should have the efficiency of the conventional systems and can also use natural gas a fuel. But this type of propulsion is relatively new, so there are not enough info regarding their reliability efficiency.
what is he doing?
Your hands while taking this video recording is shaking. The view is good but maybe the ship is moving and the video result is not good.
ship looks familiar !! name ?
amazing, although with that maze, would be difficult to get out if the vessel sinks (hope that never happens).
the crew members are familiar with the ship and can evacuate very fast. The video makes it look confusing, in reality it is easier to find your way
Pretty awesome. Everything is so clean, congratulations.
Is there 4 diesel engines and 4 electric engines for a single propeller ?
it is a new vessel and we take good care of it. there are 4 dual fuel generator engines (Gas or Diesel/HFO) and 2 electric motors connected through a reduction gear to a single propeller. But it can move with only one generator engine running. The faster you want to go the more generator engines need to run.
Nice. And to use gas as fuel is there another engine or the same engine that use fuel can use gas ?
+Daeron Barth it is the same engine, that's why it is called dual fuel, it can run on gas and if you like it can change over to fuel, or the opposite. For more info you can look for Watsila DF engines.
Really Nice, thank you.
Do you plan making more videos ? If yes you could add some subtitles to explain what it is the machine you are filming.
Thanks again
I might do it when I have free time, (not in the near future)
so.....you're burning diesel or LNG to generate electricity to run ship? We need answers
Doug Ankrum whatever you like, you can burn diesel, hfo, or natural gas.
In depend on ER of bulk carrier (supramax; panamax) it's very big ER with a many equipments - 4 ME V-shape; 8 purifies; AE size as on a ME in bulker. Now I understand why the salary is different. Conclusion - I stay on bulk carriers :D

What's shakkkkkking ?
1000mph video.gave up after 1 minute
Wartsila DFDE 9L engine (4 sets), 2 electric motors propulsion, GCU, 2 gas venting unit rooms, HV&LV rooms with GE IAS system on board. Damn, almost completely same with my previous ship even the ring of the telephone. Is it lng ship ice breaker or normal lng ship?? Nice video by the way
You have a good eye! It's a normal lng, not ice class
Lousy camera work. Jumping from one place to another
Wow, dizzying video. Makes it worthless!
safety tour...
remembering my bul_hit days
Twitchy! Guy needs to recommend Dramamine before watching. I'll check some other pieces off his work Before I subscribe. As for this one, skipping it before I taste breakfast for a second time.
Motor or steam ticket?
Its rather confusing and cause giddiness. Why u were in such hurry
yes it is. I didn't expect it to be so bad. lack of experience as a cameraman :)
Nice video) what’s the company name?
nauseating cinemaphotography
Hi try slowing down,are you on up town or what,🇳🇿😎👍kiwi pip🇳🇿😎👍
Camera work was so bad I couldn't watch it! Shakey, and just waved the camera from object to object without getting a proper view of anything!
MOL?
we need more =)
Worst camera work ever not a minute in and I gave up pity
Good video. I am electro-engineer 5 ears expiriens on crude oil tankers Korea shipyard. I want on your LNG work. It is possible.
Екатерина Бондаренко no
are those 4 stroke diesel engines?
MAN B&W 6S50MC-C 4stroke dual fuel
oh ok
sasiskas How many horsepower do these engines use?
Japanese ship?
+rsmssss Korean, 2014 built
What are all those alarms for ?
it happened long time ago, I don't remember. But it could be for anything.
You don't know how to handle a Camera while recording.
what rpms the main engines running at?
514rpm
Vou
Beijinhos y
Poor video....to jerky.....would have nice otherwise...
Invedibile
Terrible videoing!!!
Sorry Guy! But your video is bad! You are moving around to fast for me and others to see or learn something.
Very poor filming
