Singapore\u2019s port is among the busiest and most dynamic globally, requiring constant hydrographic surveying to manage its shifting seabed and sedimentary layers. To carry out this mission effectively, the Singapore Maritime Port Authority (MPA) commissioned a new class of survey vessels that must operate with precision, range, and minimal interruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To achieve these operational goals, MPA selected LATTICE to deliver a space-optimized LNG fuel tank solution using LPV technology for its newest hydrographic vessel, MATA IKAN<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Conventional cylindrical LNG tanks often require above-deck installation, occupying valuable operational space and adding complexity to the vessel\u2019s layout. For MATA IKAN, a better solution was needed\u2014one that could increase fuel capacity while integrating seamlessly into the ship\u2019s hull, not its deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n MPA sought to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n LATTICE delivered a custom-engineered LPV tank<\/strong> with a triangular shape<\/strong>, allowing perfect integration into the vessel\u2019s aft section. This innovation ensured no deck space was sacrificed, and internal tank geometry was used efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Key features included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The result was a compact yet high-volume LNG fuel solution that enabled the MPA vessel to perform longer, uninterrupted surveying operations across Singapore\u2019s maritime zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The integration of an LPV fuel tank on the MATA IKAN represents a significant leap in operational flexibility and design efficiency for utility-class government vessels. With increased range, minimized downtime, and a seamless fit into the hull, the vessel demonstrates how smart containment can elevate performance even in compact, high-spec applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This project not only showcases the versatility of LPV solutions for LNG applications but also reflects Singapore\u2019s ongoing commitment to sustainability and innovation in maritime operations.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Singapore\u2019s port is among the busiest and most dynamic globally, requiring constant hydrographic surveying to manage its shifting seabed and sedimentary layers.
