LNG Aging is an application suite available on Kongsberg Maritime’s Information Management System (K-IMS) that enables users to calculate and analyze LNG composition. LNG Aging is an application suite available on Kongsberg Maritime’s Information Management System (K-IMS) that enables users to calculate and analyze LNG (liquefied natural gas) composition. With LNG Aging, operators and traders can swiftly analyze and calculate the implications and consequences of different options for LNG transport. For example reducing or increasing speed with respect to aging of LNG compositions and Boil-off Rate, or rerouting vessels to different terminals while ensuring that requirements are met with respect to LNG compositions. Save time when calculating changes to the destinations of your LNG Cargo EfficiencySave time when calculating changes to the destinations of your LNG Cargo Predict the quality of your LNG Cargo to ensure requirements set by receiving terminals will be met Comply with Terminal RequirementsPredict the quality of your LNG Cargo to ensure requirements set by receiving terminals will be met Validate the aging of the LNG cargo against expected values for the vessel Vessel PerformanceValidate the aging of the LNG cargo against expected values for the vessel The K-IMS LNG Aging application suite consists of an Online and Offline module.TheOnline moduleuses live data from the vessel and includes anLNG Aging Predictionapplication.TheOffline moduleincludes four applications that are based on user data input. The four applications are:LNG Aging Validator, LNG Mix, LNG Volume Correction,andLNG Aging Prediction. The application followsISO6976for gross calorific value calculations andISO6578for density calculations.
| Software update review | per the maker's release schedule, typically reviewed annually |
|---|---|
| Data backup verification | typically monthly |
| User access review | typically every six months or at crew change |
| Calculation plausibility check | typically each voyage or when input sources change |
Typical intervals for this design class, not the manufacturer’s figures for your model. The manufacturer’s manual is binding.
| General note | Software has no mechanical wear; validity is judged by input data quality, model assumptions and version currency |

Ranges are typical for this design class. Always confirm against the manufacturer documentation for your serial number.
This is a performance and planning application and not a classed machinery item. Where its outputs feed the ship's cargo or energy management records, auditors may ask for evidence of data validation, version control and access control under the ship's safety and cyber management procedures.
Estimated lifetime: Not applicable; the service life of the software is governed by the maker's support period and platform release cycle rather than running hours.
