Wärtsilä informed that it will supply the cargo handling system and cargo tanks for a new 3000 cubic metre capacity LNG bunker barge, owned by LNG Shipping, a consortium between Belgium based Victrol and CFT Corporation based in France.
The full scope of Wärtsilä solutions comprises the cargo handling system, the cargo tanks, and installation of the cargo arrangement onboard the vessel.
The barge is being built in Romania and will be outfitted in the Netherlands. When delivered, it will be chartered by Shell Western LNG B.V. (Shell), operating out of Rotterdam to provide the company with additional flexibility to bunker LNG fueled ships, including vessels operating on Europe’s inland waterways.
