Nordic gas producer Scandinavian Biogas plans to supply shipping company Hurtigruten's fleet with bio-LNG bunkers.
The company is set to invest about NOK 170 million ($20.7 million) in a bio-LNG plant in Skogn, in the north of Norway, it said in a statement on its website on Thursday.
The plant will produce 35GWh/year of biogas, and is expected to be in operation by the third quarter of 2022.
