There are strict requirements on the navigation supervision of LNG carriers，and the navigation mode and emergency anchorage have always been the key points in the process of LNG terminal’s site selection，construction，and operation management. Based on the analysis of the existing specifications，the hydrological and sediment conditions，the LNG channel，and anchorage setting status，the construction and operation of LNG terminals built or under construction，and the practice of navigation management，we put forward suggestions on the selection of LNG ship navigation mode in full tide or by the tide and emergency anchorage layout，to provide a reference for the construction，operation and navigation management of LNG terminals.
