CLP Group’s subsidiary CLPe Holdings Ltd. (CLPe) signed a Cooperation Framework Agreement with China National Offshore Oil Company Guangdong Water Transport Clean Energy Company Limited (CNOOC) on the formation of a joint venture to provide liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel bunkering services in the port of Hong Kong.
Under the cooperation agreement between CLPe and CNOOC, the planned joint venture will sell and supply LNG as fuel to ships in the port of Hong Kong, supporting the development of the LNG fuel bunkering sector in the GBA and further consolidating Hong Kong’s position as a leading international maritime centre.
The joint venture is one of the two partnership agreements signed by the CLP Group with industry leaders in clean maritime fuel sector and electric transportation at the Guangdong-Hong Kong Deepening Economic, Trade and Investment Cooperation Conference.
The two agreements will bring together the industry-leading expertise and experience of CLP and our partners to enable the transportation sector’s low-carbon development in the GBA, aligning with the Action Plan on Green Maritime Fuel Bunkering recently issued by the Hong Kong Government, which promotes the city’s growth as a high-quality green maritime fuel bunkering centre to steer the shipping industry’s smart and green transformation.
