Titan LNG, Dutch LNG supplier, conducted the largest LNG bunkering in the world with Heerema Marine Contractors’ new semi-submersible crane vessel. The vessel was supplied with over 3,000 tonnes of LNG.
This is the largest quantity of LNG that has ever been bunkered and proves that this upcoming fuel is available anywhere now, as Titan LNG reported.

According to the company, the ship loaded in Singapore at the SLNG terminal where Titan LNG sourced the fuel from Pavilion Gas, the Singaporean gas and LNG supplier. The Coral Fraseri followed the Sleipnir offshore and performed a ship-to-ship operation to cool down and fill the tanks.
In light of this achievement, CEO of Titan LNG, Niels den Nijs, commented
I’m extremely proud of the Titan team that has successfully completed the largest LNG bunkering in the world. It was a complex project to supply this eight-legged innovative crane vessel, the Sleipnir.
Built at Sembcorp Marine’s Tuas Boulevard Yard, Sleipnir has a 220-meter by 102-meter reinforced deck area and can accommodate 400 persons. It will be deployed globally for installing and removing jackets, topsides, deep-water foundations, moorings and other offshore structures.
