## Description

This MCP server provides specialized calculation tools for maritime LNG transport. It allows AI agents to determine the daily boil-off rate using `calculate_daily_bor`, estimate the necessary capacity for reliquefaction with `estimate_reliquefaction_needs`, and evaluate the balance between gas production and engine demand via `analyze_fuel_consumption_balance`. It also enables predicting total cargo loss over a voyage using `predict_voyage_cargo_loss`.

## Tools

### analyze_fuel_consumption_balance
Evaluates the balance between BOG produced, BOG used for propulsion, and BOG that must be reliquefied

### calculate_daily_bor
Determines the daily amount of gas evaporated based on tank properties and environment

### estimate_reliquefaction_needs
Calculates the capacity required for a reliquefaction plant to handle the produced BOG

### predict_voyage_cargo_loss
Estimates the total volume of LNG lost or consumed over the entire journey

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the daily boil-off for a 145,000 m3 tank with an insulation factor of 0.05 at 30°C ambient and -162°C cargo?
```

**Response:** 
```
The daily boil-off volume is 14.5 m3, with a daily mass of 7,250 kg and a rate of 0.01%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Estimate the reliquefaction needs for a voyage of 20 days with a daily boil-off of 15 m3.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required plant capacity is 15.5 m3 per day to handle the daily production with a safety margin.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Will I lose much cargo on a 15-day voyage with a 0.1% daily boil-off rate and 100,000 m3 initial volume?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total volume lost will be 1,500 m3, leaving a remaining cargo volume of 98,500 m3.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the daily evaporation rate?**
You can use the `calculate_daily_bor` tool by providing the tank volume, insulation factor, ambient temperature, and cargo temperature.

**Can I check if my reliquefaction plant is sufficient?**
Yes, use `estimate_reliquefaction_needs` to determine the required plant capacity based on daily boil-off and voyage duration.

**How is fuel consumption balanced against BOG?**
The `analyze_fuel_consumption_balance` tool evaluates the relationship between produced BOG, engine fuel demand, and reliquefaction capacity.
