Titan Carries Out First Ship-to-Ship LNG Bunkering at Cuxhaven
Friday July 12, 2024
LNG bunker supplier Titan has carried out the first ship-to-ship delivery of LNG as a marine fuel at Cuxhaven.
The firm recently bunkered Van Oord's dredger the Vox Ariane with LNG at Cuxhaven, it said in a LinkedIn post on Thursday.
The port had previously only seen LNG bunker deliveries by truck.
"LNG infrastructure development is part of a broader trend, with more ports across Germany adopting LNG operations to support shipping's clean fuels transition," the company said in the post.
"Improved LNG bunkering capabilities in Cuxhaven, a Niedersachsen Ports GmbH & Co. KG port, also open up the pathway to maritime decarbonisation via liquified biomethane (LBM) and then renewable e-methane going forwards."
