Congratulations to SEA-LNG members Shell and ZIM Integrated Shipping Services on the first bunkering operation of the ZIM Mount Vinson! 👏    The company used the Progress bunker vessel to deliver to ZIM’s 15,000 TEU boxship at the Port of Savannah last week. The ship subsequently bunkered the CMA CGM Symi this week. The bunker vessel – the largest Jones Act LNG bunker barge – was delivered earlier this month.    The supply infrastructure to support LNG as a marine fuel continues to grow. It can now be delivered to vessels in some 185 ports, including most of the main bunkering ports, with a further 50 ports in the process of facilitating LNG bunkering investments and operations by 2025.    LNG bunkering infrastructure can be used to supply net-zero emissions fuels in the form of liquefied biomethane or liquefied e-methane, with little or no modification, enabling the transition to a decarbonised shipping industry.    Read more via Ship & Bunker: https://lnkd.in/gcE_Vqdw     #LNG #Decarbonisation #ShipsAndShipping 

Popular course! LNG Trade has gained immense traction in the recent past. With the LNG terminal business projected to be in full throttle in the next years, the need to understand the ins and outs, including the commercial and technical risks in end to end LNG Terminals, Terminal Operations and Ship/Truck and Land based LNG cargo operations, is a must for all players that are involved or looking to be involved in LNG operations.

📢 Another industry-first! We have completed the first-ever LNG bunkering operation by ship in the port of Cuxhaven. Our bunker vessel ‘Optimus’ swiftly, safely and successfully delivered LNG to the dredger ‘Vox Ariane,’ operated by long-term client Van Oord. Our ship-to-ship bunkering in Cuxhaven represents a pioneering step in the region's LNG infrastructure development, as the port had previously only seen LNG operations conducted via truck and currently only permits LNG bunkering at one berth. LNG infrastructure development is part of a broader trend, with more ports across Germany adopting LNG operations to support shipping’s clean fuels transition. Improved LNG bunkering capabilities in Cuxhaven, a Niedersachsen Ports GmbH & Co. KG port, also open up the pathway to maritime decarbonisation via liquified biomethane (LBM) and then renewable e-methane going forwards.

A new LNG bunker vessel for TotalEnergies in Oman. The global network of LNG bunkering facilities and vessels is growing on an (unscientifically) weekly basis. The really interesting question is are these additions enough to keep pace with ever-increasing demand? #lng #shipping #bunkering https://lnkd.in/g2fUamAV

🚢 ➡️ Small-scale LNG sector growing fast to meet demand LNG bunkering of dual-fuel vessels has been one of the main drivers in the expansion of the small-scale LNG fleet In terms of numbers, Avenir LNG is the largest beneficial owner of small-scale LNG carriers, with six vessels. In September 2023, it transferred the management of three LNG bunker vessels from one of its shareholders, Höegh LNG. The move saw the management of Avenir Achievement, Avenir Ascension and Avenir Aspiration awarded to a third party, Wilhelmsen Ship Management (WSM). #LNG #LNGbunkering #AvenirLNG #HoeghLNG
