Norden announced that it completed the first ever 100% biofuel (B100) bunkering in Singapore.
After successfully trialling a B24/VLSFO blend on Panamax vessel NORD TAURUS, they were entrusted by vessel owner ITOCHU Corporation to do the first B100 bunkering out of Singapore with support from bunker supplier Mitsui & Co. Energy Trading Singapore Pte. Ltd. (METS) – a Mitsui & Co., Ltd. subsidiary.
It is a great milestone for DS NORDEN to be able to carry out the first ever B100 bunkering in Singapore, supporting our ambition to decarbonise our customers’ supply chains.
…says Henrik Røjel, Head of Decarbonisation & Climate Solutions at NORDEN.
The week before, we did the first B100 bunkering on our Capesize NORD STEEL in Rotterdam, further adding to our aspirations to be a frontrunner within the decarbonisation of shipping.
…Henrik Røjel added.
Last year, Norden invested in MASH Makes, a Danish-Indian biofuel startup that focuses on researching, developing, and producing renewable fuels from biomass waste.
