As the environmental crisis demands for alternative fuels, one of the most promising and growing energy sources is Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). The objective of this thesis is to study LNG as an alternative source of energy to oil, as well as to examine investment and upgrade opportunities for Greece, and more specifically, for the Skaramagkas shipyard.In subject study, it is examined how Greece can be affected and potentially benefited from the shift towards LNG based on its long standing background and leading role in the maritime industry. In addition, it is examined how ports and shipyards can cope with the changes and with accommodating the emerging needs and vessels.The aim of subject paper is to detect and discuss investment opportunities in the LNG market, which is growing rapidly, challenges and necessary adaptations based on requirements and technical, institutional, logistics, financial aspects in combination with information of the energy market and potential of the Greek maritime industry.
