The dual fuel engine and generator can meet the requirements of International Maritime Organization (IMO) for the emission of nitrogen oxides and sulfide, and can reduce the emission of carbon dioxide and particulate matter, when using the liquefied natural gas (LNG), a clean energy source, as fuel. The objective of the current study on the application of the fuel gas supply system is how to ensure the safe use of LNG as fuel, which is also the main requirement of the International Code of the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk(IGC Code). This paper introduces the design of a set of fuel gas supply systems for a LNG bunker vessel with one main engine and two generators. The main gas valve design, ventilation flow calculation and dangerous region setting that are required in the IGC Code are calculated, studied and analyzed. The design requirements of one main valve for several devices in the fuel gas supply system that meets the IGC Code is summarized. The optimized system design can meet the requirements of the ICG Code for the safe use of LNG fuel.
