Abstrakt: The article focuses on a study on the safety of the hull structure and cargo containment system of 208K MK III type of Arctic liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers based on the direct calculation of ice loads and wave loads. Natural gas is transported from Murmansk, Russia to the Gulf of Mexico through the Barents sea by the vessel. Based on the results of the study, the vessel is safe to operate in the Arctic region as it has enough strength.
