Energy company Mabanaft has reached an agreement with the shipping company Hapag-Lloyd for the supply of B30 biofuel. A first test delivery of 1,000 tonnes (mt) of B30 VLSFO from Mabanaft’s Waltershof tank terminal was scheduled for 12 December in the port of Hamburg for the container ship Delaware Express.
The delivery follows an extensive analysis of possible bio-components that Mabanaft can add to B30 biofuel. All options were analysed for their quality and potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The agreement with Hapag-Lloyd is for an initial supply of 1,000 tonnes of B30. Additional volumes could follow in 2025.
