DP World Names New Methanol Dual-Fuel Container Ship
DP World has named a new methanol dual-fuel feeder container ship in Aarhus, Denmark.
The 1,250 TEU vessel, DP World London, was built in China and delivered in April 2026, DP World said in a press release on Monday.
Owned by Germany’s Elbdeich Reederei and operated by DP World Shipping Solutions, the Portugal-flagged vessel will operate on the North Europe service.
The 148 m vessel is fitted with a five-cylinder main engine and exhaust gas recirculation technology.
It completed its first methanol bunkering in Rotterdam on June 25, with Unibarge as the bunkering partner and Methanex supplying the fuel.
“This dual-fuel vessel reflects both our heritage and the future we are building,” Martin Gaard Christiansen, CEO, Shipping Solutions EAM at DP World, said.
“This methanol dual-fuel vessel is a tangible example of how DP World is investing in practical innovation to provide customers with more reliable, flexible and lower-emission shipping solutions,” Ganesh Raj, Global Chief Operating Officer, Marine Services at DP World, said.
