China Changjiang Bunker (Sinopec) Co Ltd (CCBC) on Wednesday (17 December) said it successfully completed the first methanol bunkering operation of Associated Maritime Company’s (Hong Kong) (AMCL) methanol dual-fuel intelligent VLCC at the shipyard terminal in Dalian.
In close cooperation with AMCL and Sinopec Fuel Oil Sales Co Ltd, CCBC supplied 620 metric tonnes (mt) of methanol to the vessel.
This marked CCBC’s first methanol bunkering operation on a coastal vessel, marking a milestone for the company in the field of coastal green bunkering.
Going forward, CCBC will continue to focus on the core needs of the shipping industry’s low-carbon transformation, fully leveraging the resource advantages of its two major shareholders, Sinopec Group and China Merchants Group.
It will also continuously enhance its green bunkering supply chain security capabilities, accelerate the improvement of its coastal and inland waterway alternative fuel bunkering network, and continuously expand its supply of new fuel sources such as methanol and LNG.
