could be attributed to the transportation process in a NGH carrier the energy consumption for the refrigeration is shown. Although
ship, and next major energy consumption sector is pretreatment of energy consumption for the refrigeration decreased linearly with the
the natural gas for hydrate formation including pressurization and increase in the transport temperature, but the effect of the reduction
cooling. In the following sections, the influences of the operational on the total energy consumption is less than 1 % at the highest
parameters on the energy consumption were investigated. temperature studied, i.e., 273.15 K.
