What is the term used for evaporated LNG?

🔍 Key Concepts

• LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) behavior when warmed in a tank • Industry term for gas that naturally re-enters the vapor phase from a refrigerated cargo • How LNG carriers manage excess vapor in their cargo systems

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: when LNG in a cargo tank absorbs heat and some of it turns back into gas, what do mariners and engineers commonly call that gas? • Consider which option sounds like a specific technical term used on LNG carriers, versus a general word for gas. • Think about which choice best matches manuals and procedures for LNG tank pressure control and use as fuel.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which term is used in LNG carrier operations for gas that is intentionally vented, reliquefied, or burned as fuel. • Check LNG training materials or STCW code guidance for the standard term for naturally generated vapor from LNG cargo. • Make sure the option you choose is a recognized industry term, not just a generic description or an incorrect acronym.
