Maran Tankers Adds Fourth LNG Dual-Fuel Suezmax to Fleet
Maran Tankers, part of Greece’s Angelicoussis Group, has taken delivery of the fourth LNG dual-fuel Suezmax oil tanker in its series.
The 155,500 DWT vessel, Maran Myrsini, is built by New Times Shipbuilding and sails under the Greek flag, Angelicoussis Group said in a LinkedIn post on Thursday.
It features an optimised hull, energy-saving devices, efficient boil-off gas management and a shaft generator designed to improve fuel efficiency.
The delivery adds another energy-efficient vessel to Maran Tankers’ fleet and supports the Angelicoussis Group’s fleet renewal programme.
LNG is seen as a more mature alternative marine fuel and is more widely available compared to other fuels such as methanol.
While it emits less CO2 than conventional fuels, methane slip - involving a potent greenhouse gas - undermines part of the fuel's green credentials.
Some shipowners are looking towards cleaner bio-LNG as an alternative, as it can be used in existing LNG-fuelled ships and delivers higher net GHG savings.
