Cost of emissions compliance favours LNG over methanol, says SEA-LNG study 

Using long-term price benchmarks for ammonia, methanol and LNG as a marine fuel, SEA-LNG has calculated the cost of compliance with FuelEU Maritime regulations for a typical 14,000-TEU newbuild container vessel coming into operation in 2025.

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

LNG retrofit will rate higher under CII, says SEA-LNG analysis

LNG is the best fuel option for owners considering how to extend vessel life and secure CII compliance through retrofit, according to SEA-LNG, the multi-sector industry coalition established to demonstrate the benefits of the LNG fuel pathway for shipping decarbonisation. In a piece of analysis released, the coalition finds significant benefits to a business choosing

‘LNG is not a transition fuel, it’s a fuel in transition’

In an exclusive interview with Future Fuels, Steve Esau, Chief Operating Officer, SEA-LNG, shares his views on how Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) can be a potential alternative fuel for maritime industry. Recently, the new build orders for LNG-powered ships have been on the rise. Is this because there are no readily available alternative fuels for

SEA-LNG disappointed over misinformation on LNG-fueled vessels

Noting that methane slip from LNG-fueled vessels is a recognized problem that the maritime industry has been actively addressing for well over a decade, the SEA-LNG coalition says it is disappointed to see what it calls an “ongoing campaign of misinformation that misrepresents the progress the industry has made, and is continuing to make, to

LNG takes off with ordering boom and new bunkering infrastructure

2021 was a banner year for the expansion of LNG as a marine fuel, according to industry association SEA-LNG. In its annual report, the group pointed to record-setting newbuild orders for dual-fuel LNG vessels and an expanding network of bunkering facilities as further evidence that this fuel option is a popular and growing choice for
