Dan-Bunkering Facilitates LNG Bunkering for Sallaum Lines Newbuild in China
Global marine fuel trading firm Dan-Bunkering has facilitated the LNG bunkering operation for shipping firm Sallaum Lines’ new LNG-fuelled pure car and truck carrier in China.
The vessel, Ocean Express, was bunkered with about 1,400 mt of LNG, the firm said in an email statement on Friday.
The supply follows more than a year of planning between the companies, with Dan-Bunkering assessing LNG sourcing options linked to Sallaum Lines' newbuild programme since April 2025.
Ocean Express is one of six vessels in the series and the fourth for which Dan-Bunkering has supported LNG supply arrangements.
Sallaum Lines took delivery of the vessel earlier this month.
The bunkering operation was carried out through a ship-to-ship delivery solution with Dan-Bunkering working with local supplier SIPG Energy to coordinate and execute the operation.
The delivery also involved support from Dan-Bunkering's Netherlands office and specialists from parent company Bunker Holding.
“This is a great example of what it takes to support clients in the transition to alternative fuels,” James Shiller, Global Lead of New Fuels at Dan-Bunkering, said.
