A memorandum of understanding (MoU) has been signed by the city of Rotterdam and the city of Oslo to create a new green corridor for short sea shipping that will be served by Samskip’s next generation green hydrogen-fuelled SeaShuttle box ships.
Two Samskip next generation zero-emission SeaShuttles will be utilised to service the new green corridor. These vessels will be among the first zero-emission short sea container vessels in the world to use green hydrogen as fuel. The operation will include weekly loops between Rotterdam and ports in the Oslofjord region establishing end-to-end corridor services.
Green corridors within Europe are becoming commonplace. Splash reported earlier this week on a similar arrangement being agreed between Finland and Estonia.
