Gas carriers, such as LPG and LNG carriers, are fitted with a deck water spray system for the following reasons:

to provide protection against fire
to cooling in the event of a fire in the cargo area
to cool down cargo tanks during the voyage (if required)
to flush the cargo spill overboard and protect the crew in case of a cargo spill incident.
