Avenir Marine Limited has started to deliver LNG to TT-Line at Trelleborg.
On 15th and 16th April, the fuel was bunkered to TT-Line’s ropaxes ‘Nils Holgersson’ and ‘Peter Pan’ in the Swedish port.
The two operations were performed consecutively by the ‘Avenir Ascension’, which has a total LNG tank capacity of 7,500 cu m.
Trelleborg is now the third port that Avenir has served TT-Line’s LNG/BioLNG requirements, after earlier completing operations in Pengerang, Malaysia and Lubeck, Germany.
Commenting on the operations, Jan Schubert, Avenir LNG Limited’s Commercial Director – LNG bunkering, said “It’s good to see that the network of LNG & bio-LNG bunker locations is growing and that TT-Line and Avenir have been able to establish a partnership, which is now extended to other locations as well.
“Furthermore, the successful deliveries show that the use of LNG as fuel is growing and shipping companies all over the world have started the transition to make shipping more sustainable,” he said.
