And why not? I mean, transporting LNG requires releasing the "boil off" along the way... I've been saying for a couple years that since they're building a bunch of new LNG carriers for when all the export terminals are up and running in N. America, they might as well build the new ones to "burn" LNG -- specifically the boil off, maybe more, maybe less that what might be needed to propel the ship. Seems to me, shipping lines would benefit financially doing that -- it should be more efficient, too, but I'd have to run the numbers of typical bunker fuel vs. LNG (and how much LNG would be needed to deliver a cargo of LNG to Europe or to Asia. There's already a large number of LNG vehicles, esp. fleets: all of the Waste Management trucks here have switched, our county buses have all been converted, many (and more all the time) UPS trucks run on it... I've seen a lot of UPS triple trailer semis powered by LNG between LA and Salt Lake City (I-15 has adequate fueling station support to make that possible).
