LNG Type C - MARVS Setpoint
Typical MARVS setting for LNG Type C fuel tanks - usually 7–10 bar(g) balanced against insulation limit.
MARVS
9.0bar(g)
Note
Type C fuel tank - no reliquefaction required if BOR low
Formula, assumptions, and limits
Small-scale LNG bunker vessels use 4-9 bar. Higher MARVS → smaller tank wall thickness + more BOG hold-up. Trade-off vs economics of reliquefaction.
