Shipbuilders and technology providers have unveiled several new concepts for LNG carrier designs to cut emissions and improve efficiencies during Nor-Shipping in Oslo.

South Korean shipbuilder Samsung Heavy Industries has teamed with the Korean Register to develop a 174,000-cbm LNG carrier with three cargo tanks.
