What is claimed to be the world’s first container ship retrofitted with an LNG engine has undergone initial bunkering at the Kühlhauskai in the Port of Bremerhaven.
Britain’s leading LPG supplier Flogas has this week carried out the first bunkering of a ship with LNG in the UK, at Port of Immingham belonging to AB Ports.
Singapore LNG Corporation (SLNG) has completed its first small scale LNG reload at its terminal on Singapore’s Jurong Island, setting the stage for Singapore to expand on LNG bunkering and transhipment activities.
LNG as a marine fuel will bring with it more complexities to the bunkering process and change the relationship between the owner and the supplier, according to ExxonMobil's global marketing manager marine fuels and lubricants, Iain White.
