Last week on Bunkerspot, the who’s who of the #maritime world – including Petrospot Limited's intrepid team of Llewellyn Bankes-Hughes & Lesley Bankes-Hughes and William Mulhall! - descended on #Athens for one of the most eagerly-awaited events in the #shipping calendar - #Posidonia2024. There were multiple announcements, several concerning #ammonia as a #marinefuel. Korean Register announced it had signed an MoU with Samsung Heavy Industries for the development of 9,300 TEU ammonia-fuelled container ships, as well as granting an AiP for an ultra-large ammonia carrier that is being developed in a joint project between KR and SHI. Meanwhile, Lloyd's Register awarded Chinese design company CSSC-SDARI with an AiP for its ammonia-propelled 8,200 TEU containership design. A shift to ammonia as a marine fuel will not just necessitate an increase in associated infrastructure, it will also require a workforce that is able manage it. To that end, MAN Energy Solutions signed an MoU with Eastern Pacific Shipping Pte. Ltd. at Posidonia on the development of crew training for the handling of ammonia as fuel on #vessels. We spoke with UECC’s Daniel Gent who explained how the early signs were promising for the car carrier’s Cashew Nut Shell Liquid-based #biofuel trial. ‘Already we’re seeing very positive results from the consumption of the fuel,’ said Gent during an exclusive interview with Bunkerspot. In other news, Poland-based Unimot Paliwa has started supplying #bunkerfuel in the ports of #Szczecin, #Świnoujście and Police; AURAMARINE announced it had won an order from Meyer Turku shipyard for a #methanol fuel supply system and associated equipment for the TUI Cruises-owned, methanol-ready Mein Schiff 7 cruise vessel; and of the 33 new orders for alternative-fuelled vessels in May, 23 were for methanol, according to the latest figures from DNV’s Alternative Fuel Insight platform.
