周二(4 月 18 日),新加坡燃油与物流服务提供商Consort Bunkers Pte Ltd从中国山东省的京鲁船业(蓬莱中柏京鲁船业有限公司)接收了“Pearl Khaoyai”轮。

Consort Bunkers创始人杨肃敬(SK Yeo)先生告诉《满航时报》,这艘悬挂新加坡国旗的7,999 载重吨加油船是2020年该公司订购的七艘“K”系列加油船中的第三艘,将被部署于Maersk Oil Trading的海上加油业务。

“我们‘K’系列加油船的最后一艘将升级IMO 2型化学品油轮,以部署在面向未来的加油业务,并涵盖传统船燃类以及绿色替代船燃,如生物燃料和甲醇。”杨先生分享道。

“预计,这艘船将在2024 年第一季度交付;其中,Consort Bunkers 将成为先行运营此新建IMO 2 型油轮的新加坡燃料供应商之一,并于当地提供服务。”

借此机会,杨先生表示,作为Consort Bunkers 船队更迭计划的一部分,Consort Bunkers 也在4月初向招商局金陵船舶(南京)有限公司订购了6艘6,500载重吨的IMO 2型油轮。

这一批6,500 载重吨的新船除了能够提供各种常规船用燃料,也可以提供包含生物燃料和甲醇在内的可持续绿色燃料。

“这六艘船都属于我们的‘L’系列油轮,将于2024年至2025年之间陆续交付。”他指出,并解释,这些最新订购的升级版IMO 2型油轮将能够在即将来临的IMO 2030目标框架下提供加注服务。

“生物燃料和甲醇是当今被预测可能帮助航运业向IMO 2030/2050脱碳目标推进的替代燃料之一,同时,也都属于化学品类,其运输必须依靠配备不锈钢或涂层管道、涂层罐等其他特性的化学品油轮,以确保能够符合相关的安全规定。

“因此,我们推进航运脱碳的理念,也促成了我们决定委托金陵船厂建造新型的加油船;而这也与MPA(新加坡海事及港务管理局)去年发布的《新加坡海事脱碳蓝图》步伐一致。

“另外,我们也注意到,MPA已引入一项有关生物船燃规格的临时国家标准 (WA 2:2022),因此,我们在致力于推出新的IMO 2 型油轮时也考量了这一因素。”

展望未来,杨先生分享道,Consort Bunkers 将把2018 年建竣的“Pearl Mercury ”轮和2019年建竣的“Pearl Majestic”轮分别出售给欧洲和中东买家;这两艘8,000 载重吨的船舶是该公司2016 年向一家中国造船厂订购的七艘“M”系列船的其中姊妹船。

“从 2016 年至今 [2023 年],能够运载常规船燃的新建加油船成本已经上涨了30-40%。”杨先生发表其个人洞见。

“根据我们最新的[‘L’ 系列新造船订单] 信息,与当前的新造传统油轮价格相比,新型IMO 2型油船还得面对额外15-20% 的建造成本溢价。”

2022 年,在MPA的年度船用燃油供应商排行榜上,Consort Bunkers排名第18 位(2021 年的排名为第20 位)。

ITOCHU orders world’s first ammonia bunkering vessel for Singapore demonstration project

ITOCHU Corporation (ITOCHU) on Monday (14 July) announced that it recently signed a shipbuilding contract for the construction of a 5,000 m3 ammonia bunkering vessel with Sasaki Shipbuilding. 

The company also announced an agreement regarding the construction of an ammonia tank plant that will be loaded onto the vessel with Izumi Steel Works. 

These agreements were signed by Clean Ammonia Bunkering Shipping Pte Ltd (CABS), a wholly owned Singapore-based specific purpose company of ITOCHU. 

In relation to this, CABS has concluded a financing agreement with The Hiroshima Bank for financing a part of purchase price of the vessel.

The agreements were concluded to pursue the Demonstration Project for Bunkering Ammonia as Marine Fuel in Singapore adopted by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry in Japan as part of the Global South Future-oriented Co-Creation Project (large-scale demonstration in ASEAN member states). 

Going forward, with an eye toward the demonstration of ammonia bunkering in Singapore after building the world’s first newbuilding ammonia bunkering vessel, ITOCHU said efforts will be made to facilitate concrete discussions with the maritime stakeholders, including the port authority in Singapore, the Maritime & Port Authority of Singapore (MPA), and the fuel producers, while obtaining support from the Japanese Government.

The vessel is to be flagged under the Singapore Registry and is expected to be delivered in September 2027.

ITOCHU will establish a safe offshore bunkering operation of ammonia as marine fuel by way of ship-to-ship transfer through the development and construction of the vessel and demonstration. 

Then, by utilising the vessel, ITOCHU will establish connection between the first movers in clean ammonia production and the first movers in the ammonia-fueled vessels and secure initial demand for ammonia as marine fuel, aiming at the commercialisation of ammonia bunkering business in Singapore and expansion of similar business model to major maritime transportation points around the world, including Spain (Strait of Gibraltar), Egypt (Suez Canal) and Japan.
