She's been moored in Southampton for over 5 months now. However the vessel was detained and barred from leaving the UK this week by the Environment Agency over suspicions she was heading abroad to be dismantled illegally.

The tanks are known as Moss Spheres and the ship is one of two general types of LNG, the other(which does not have the spheres/pyramids on deck) being the Membrane type. An interesting feature of these vessels is they use the boil off from the cargo(which must be carried in a refrigerated state at -163 degrees C) as a means of propulsion.
