Gasum, together with Pavilion Energy, and CNOOC Gas and Power Group have signed an agreement to strengthen the global LNG bunker supply network for their customers in the world’s top three bunkering regions: Singapore, North-West Europe (including Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Antwerp), as well as China coastal areas.
The agreement will allow the three parties to leverage one another in LNG bunkering operations to bring operational flexibility across global supply points.
The agreement aims to establish central links across the West and East in key LNG-bunker ready ports that include the Baltic and North Sea ECA (North-West Europe); key Chinese ports such as Shenzhen, Guangzhou and Ningbo; as well as Singapore.
The agreement is an extension of Gasum’s partnership with Pavilion Energy signed in October 2020 to collaboratively develop the LNG bunker supply network in Singapore and Northern Europe. CNOOC’s participation will boost this industry alliance and further encourages the uptake of LNG as a cleaner marine fuel.
We are very happy about this partnership with Pavilion Energy and CNOOC, not only because it expands our geographical reach and broadens our offering, but this agreement is also an excellent example of the kind of global collaboration that is needed to achieve a carbon-neutral future – no company can do this alone
saidMika Wiljanen, CEO of Gasum.
In 2021 Gasum performed over 1,300 ship-to-ship and truck-to-ship deliveries of LNG through its complete value chain which serves the distribution of both liquefied natural gas and liquefied biogas (LBG or Bio-LNG).
