ClassNK has issued an approval in principle (AiP) for a methanol fuel tank design concept developed by SRC Group. The certification demonstrates its feasibility from regulatory and safety perspectives.

The vessels operate with wind-assisted propulsion and dual-fuel engines capable of running on MGO, biofuels, and methanol.

The initiative builds on the first bio-LNG bunkering in the U.S.

ClassNK, along with IHI Corporation, JFE Steel, Tohoku University and the Institute of Science Tokyo, have been selected to work on tools assessing stress corrosion cracking (SCC) risks in ammonia fuel storage and transportation equipment.

Significantly reducing GHG emissions through clean fuel, accelerating the decarbonization of shipping

The new technology will be used on board four Medium Gas Carriers for Trafigura, being built at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD)

Researchers analyzed the full lifecycle of several fuel options and found this approach has a comparable environmental impact, overall, to burning low-sulfur fuels.

Operation showcases a significant shift to bio-LNG from Car Carrier segment with MOL paving the way for the Japanese players

The decision to cut off the U.S. military could have logistical implications for American naval operations in the region.

Anchored outside Mongstad, Norway, Fure Viken has received a Bio-LNG bunker delivery

The service will provide vessels with reliable and efficient fuel options, eliminating logistical challenges and enhancing operational efficiency.

A 52-bore single-cylinder version of the X-DF-A engine is running at the company's Engine Research and Innovation Centre (ERIC) in Winterthur, with final validation to be completed in time for the first engine deliveries in June 2025.
