TotalEnergies Marine Fuels’ chartered LNG bunker vessel Gas Vitality successfully achieved a milestone with the completion of the first bunkering operation by its vessel at anchorage at Marseille Fos in France, according to Eric Lepesan, the firm’s bunker operations manager on Friday (15 March).
The operation saw Gas Vitality successfully bunkering the company’s chartered crude oil tanker Hafnia Languedoc, at Marseille Fos, in France, on 29 February.
“By bunkering at anchorage, we provided the Hafnia Languedoc with a more flexible LNG bunkering spot, enhancing operational efficiency and cutting costs without compromising on safety,” Lepesan said.
“We are proud to enable more flexible solutions and to drive positive change in maritime operations. Bravo to our dedicated teams and partners for making this milestone possible.”
On 24 January, global ship management and marine solutions provider V.Group said the Gas Vitality celebrated the onset of the New Year by successfully conducting its 100th bunkering operation.
Gas Vitality is owned by Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL), chartered by TotalEnergies and managed by V.Ships France. Operational since December 2021, it is based in the Port of Marseille-Fos, Southern France, and serves the Mediterranean region.
