🇺🇸 🚨 Calcasieu Pass commissioning cargoes dispute - no winners in sight Although Calcasieu Pass went from FID to LNG production in just 29 months, it then underwent (and is still undergoing) one of the longest known LNG production commissioning phases. Commissioning cargoes to test and tune an LNG facility are not counted as part of the long-term agreements with foundation partners. #LNG #USLNG #VentureGlobal #CalcasieuPassLNG #Shell #bp #Edison #Galp #Repsol

BioLNG is part of this LNG Expression of Interest by MPA. ""In a statement issued today (12 December), the MPA highlighted that LNG bunkering in Singapore has grown from 16,000 tonnes delivered in 2022 to over 385,000 tonnes delivered from January to October 2024. The EOI seeks to gather proposals on three areas: to scale up sea-based reloading operations, including ship-to-bunker barge LNG operations; to facilitate the supply of LNG alternatives such as liquefied bio-methane; and to develop floating platform concepts to enhance bunkering safety and efficiency. The MPA highlighted that the proposals should also include mitigation measures to address the issue of methane slip on a well-to-wake basis. It emphasised that participants in the EOI do not need to be an existing LNG bunkering licensee." https://lnkd.in/gP8StVku

We are happy to announce that Wärtsilä will be delivering cargo handling and fuel supply systems to a new 12,500 cbm LNG bunkering vessel being built at the Nantong CIMC Sinopacific Offshore & Engineering Co., Ltd shipyard in China. “LNG is today an important marine fuel and is rapidly becoming the preferred choice for owners and operators seeking more sustainable fuel options. The market for LNG bunkering vessels is increasing in line with this trend, and we have established a leading position in supplying modern and reliable systems that optimize overall cargo handling efficiency for such vessels.” - Richie Zhu, Sales Manager, Wärtsilä Gas Solutions, China. Wärtsilä has a long-standing relationship with Nantong CIMC Sinopacific Offshore & Engineering, and has supplied cargo handling systems for a number of LNG, LPG, ethane/ethylene, and multi-gas carriers built by the yard.

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
