Abstract

A liquefied natural gas (LNG) bunkering equipment test and evaluation system is provided. The system includes a storage tank module configured to store a liquefied natural gas, a supply module for connecting the storage tank module and the bunkering module, a bunkering module configured to perform bunkering by being supplied with the liquefied natural gas, a simulation module provided at a part under the bunkering module and the supply module and the simulation module is configured to simulate a maritime situation by giving a fluidity to the bunkering module and the supply module, and a controller configured to control a driving of the simulation module, thereby simulating various situations of sea areas by giving fluidity to the storage tank module and the bunkering module.
