Chemgas Sno, Storm, Sumatra – for Chemgas

Chemgas operates its own fleet of inland, seagoing, and sea/river-going vessels to transport petrochemical gases. When the company decided to update its fleet, C-Job assisted to ensure that designs for three new LPG inland tankers – called Sno, Storm and Sumatra – were feasible. We also visualized proposed changes, and prepared final specifications for the shipyard.

Nuclear-powered commercial vessel

Research by C-Job demonstrates the potential for nuclear energy to become an alternative energy source which could contribute to the decarbonization of commercial shipping. This is in part due to the development of small modular reactors (SMRs) and advances in nuclear technologies. Additional C-Job studies explore new economical design speeds when using nuclear energy as a propulsion source for future cases.
