Gasum uses bio-LNG to power Equinor’s tugboats

As part of their continued partnership to promote the use of bio-LNG, Finland-based energy business Gasum has supplied bio-LNG to two tugboats run by Norwegian energy giant Equinor. As per the deal, Gasum will use bio-LNG to bunker Equinor’s tugboats Bokn and Borgøy through 2025. The first Borgøy bunkering had already taken place in Kårstø

Straits Bio-LNG joins SEA-LNG

Straits Bio-LNG, a biofuel supplier based in Singapore, has joined the SEA-LNG alliance, which is the industry advocate group supporting LNG as a maritime fuel. The coalition’s newest member comes as LNG now accounts for the majority of alternative fuel vessel orders. And as more LNG-fueled boats have come into service, LNG bunkering volumes have

Bio-LNG to replace fossil LNG

Rohe Solutions started the production of Bio-LNG i.e. liquefied biomethane on August 29, 2024, at the Hamina LNG terminal. Bio-LNG is produced using biomethane from the gas grid in a process called liquefaction from the grid. Since last autumn, Rohe has been actively preparing to start the production, which is a significant step both for

Bio-LNG bunkers are now available at 70 ports worldwide

A total of 355 LNG-fuelled ships, not counting LNG carriers, are able to use bio-LNG as drop-in fuel without any modification, the industry lobby group, which displays the availability of the marine fuel on its online Bunker Navigator tool, said.

World’s largest bio-LNG plant at Amsterdam port

Dutch fuel supplier Titan has moved to build what it says would be the world’s largest biomethane liquefaction plant (bio-LNG) in the Port of Amsterdam. Formerly known as Titan LNG, the company will build and operate a 200,000 tonnes per year plant, with production expected in 2025, in partnership with biogas supplier BioValue and Linde

New independent study confirms bio-LNG’s role in shipping’s decarbonisation

A new study commissioned by SEA-LNG has found that liquified bio-methane (bio-LNG) can make a major contribution to maritime decarbonisation. Conducted by the Maritime Energy and Sustainable Development Centre of Excellence (MESD CoE) at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), the study explored questions around fuel availability, cost, lifecycle emissions and logistics, providing an overview

GCMD pledges funding for green marine fuel supply chain

The Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) is leading a consortium of 18 industry partners to launch a drop-in biofuels pilot project with a combined contribution of $18M in cash. The consortium will establish an assurance framework for ensuring the supply chain integrity of current and future green marine fuels. GCMD-led pilot aims to establish

FirstBio2Shipping project awarded funding for a bio-LNG production plant

Attero, Titan LNG and Nordsol, all based in The Netherlands, have joined forces in the FirstBio2Shipping project, designed to help decarbonise maritime transport through scalable and decentralized production of bio-LNG, which originates from organic waste flows, particularly domestic and agricultural waste. The project has received funding of €4.3m ($4.85m) from the EU through its Fit
