New Times Shipbuilding Delivers LNG Dual-Fuel Tanker
Friday June 19, 2026
China’s New Times Shipbuilding has delivered an LNG dual-fuel crude oil tanker.
The 299,500 DWT tanker, Mount Vision, was named in a ceremony on Tuesday, the shipbuilder said in a statement on its website on Thursday.
The vessel is capable of running on LNG or conventional marine fuels.
While LNG is becoming a more widely available alternative marine fuel than options such as methanol or ammonia, these vessels may still need to transition to lower-carbon fuels such as bio-LNG as emissions rules tighten.
Bio-LNG can be used as a drop-in fuel in LNG-fuelled ships.
The shipbuilder has not named the shipowner or operator details.
