FueLNG announced that it has successfully completed its 200th ship-to-ship (STS) liquefied natural gas (LNG) bunkering operation.
As informed, the milestone operation was conducted by FueLNG Venosa, delivering 9,000 cubic metres (cbm) of LNG fuel to CMA CGM Bahia on 29th June at the Raffles Reserve Anchorage in Singapore. This vessel is part of a new generation of six CMA CGM containerships featuring “biomethane and e-methane ready” engines and an enhanced aerodynamic design.
Saunak Rai, FueLNG’s General Manager said: “This achievement would not have been possible without the unwavering support of our stakeholders – Seatrium, Shell, our esteemed customer CMA CGM, and the authorities at the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA). Their collaboration and commitment have been instrumental in helping us reach this significant milestone.”
This milestone is a testament to their efficiency, reliability, and commitment to growing the Singapore LNG bunkering market through the decarbonisation of shipping.
…Farid Trad, Vice President Bunkering & Energy Transition at CMA CGM, said.
Hwee Lan Khoo, Chairman of FueLNG and Strategic Account Manager in Shell Marine, said: “Celebrating this bunkering milestone is not just a significant
achievement for FueLNG, but a proud moment for Singapore as it strengthens its position as a key LNG bunkering hub in Asia. We anticipate further growth in this strategic location aligned with the increase in the LNG-fuelled fleet.”
