K Line has successfully commenced technical management of Singapore’s first LNG bunkering vessel “FUELNG BELLINA”.
The vessel, owned by FueLNG Pte Ltd, a joint venture between Keppel Offshore & Marine Ltd (Keppel O&M) and Shell Eastern Petroleum (Pte) Ltd, has now become commercially operational in Singapore and is ready to supply LNG as marine fuel.
FUELNG BELLINA’s debut in Singapore is considered a remarkable milestone for the maritime industry in their efforts to reduce emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG).
LNG enables vessels to emit less GHG when used as marine fuel compared to conventional heavy fuel oils; and having the FUELNG BELLINA provide LNG bunkering on a ship-to-ship basis in Singapore offers more opportunities to various ship operators to choose a greener marine fuel
stated K Line.
K Line will also promote its effort to reduce GHG emissions in accordance with the “K” LINE Environmental Vision 2050, providing logistics services that are more environmentally lowloaded and highly efficient.
