Shenzhen Fengyang Shipping’s dual-fuel methanol bunkering ship has started construction at Zhoushan shipyard on Thursday (8 August), according to China’s media outlets.

The 7,500-dwt ship is expected to be put into use for methanol bunkering in the fourth quarter of 2025.

After completion, the ship will be China’s first dual-fuel methanol-powered ship capable of providing methanol and traditional fuel oil refueling services. 

It will mainly provide green methanol bunkering services for the green methanol-powered international container liners under COSCO Shipping at Yantian Port.
