DNV's blessing for this blue ammonia FPSO concept paves the way for unlocking scalable, low-carbon offshore energy production.
The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), a classification society, has handed out approval in principle (AIP) for a multi-purpose fuel tank and fuel gas supply system design that enables a liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier (LNGC) to shift from LNG to ammonia fuel without replacing the fuel tank or f
A carbon capture facility has been inaugurated in the Netherlands at Yara’s plant, from where CO2 will be transported by ship to Norway for permanent storage under the seabed as part of the Northern Lights project. Deemed Europe’s largest industrial carbon capture facility, it will capture up to 800
Lloyd’s Register (LR), the UK-based classification society, and the Marine Design and Research Institute of China (MARIC) have unveiled a tri-fuel-ready tanker concept designed to give owners flexibility to pursue liquefied natural gas (LNG), methanol, or ammonia as fuel technologies, infrastructure
Höegh Evi, a Norwegian owner and operator of liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers and floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs), and Nord Gas Solutions, formerly Wartsila Gas Solutions, have wrapped up the performance testing of their ammonia-to-hydrogen cracking technology for floating hydr
Australian green technology, energy, and metals company Fortescue is set to charter a fleet of 12 ammonia-capable vessels from Bocimar, CMB.TECH’s dry bulk shipping operator, under a newly signed agreement. Fortescue will charter 12 Newcastlemax dry bulk vessels (210,000 dwt), with up to three to be
Belgian shipping company Exmar has celebrated the delivery of the first in a series of four newbuild dual-fuel ammonia midsize gas carriers (MGCs), seen as a breakthrough in the green shipping quest and a landmark milestone in the firm’s attempt to future-proof its vessel fleet.
A new consortium, facilitated by the Global Maritime Forum and RMI, is set on bringing to life a green shipping corridor between the Port of Açu in Brazil and the Port of Antwerp-Bruges in Belgium to advance e-fuel production and transport.
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has approved the new safety guidelines for the use of ammonia as fuel on gas carriers, providing a practical framework to manage the associated safety risks, particularly its toxicity and handling requirements. The guidelines were developed through colla
Following what was described as the world’s first type approval (TAT) and factory acceptance testing (FAT) for this type of engine some three months ago, Swiss marine power company WinGD has completed another FAT for its ammonia-fueled two-stroke marine engine. Built by Yuchai Marine Power (YCMP), t
Eidesvik Offshore’s platform supply vessel (PSV) Viking Energy has entered the dock at Halsnøy Dokk to start conversion to ammonia-powered operations. The conversion is planned to be completed in autumn, when the 95-meter-long vessel will continue operating for Equinor, with whom it has been on cont
