Nordic liquefied natural gas (LNG) bunker supplier Gasum on Monday (6 May) said it successfully conducted first ship-to-ship LNG bunker deliveries in Lübeck-Travemünde.
The firm said it successfully conducted its first ship-to-ship LNG bunker deliveries in Travemünde, Germany, on 29 and 30 April.
A total of 700 metric tonnes (mt) of LNG bunker fuel was supplied by Gasum’s long-term chartered LNG bunker vessel MT Coralius to the sister vessels MV Baltic Enabler and MV Botnia Enabler, owned by shipping company Wallenius Sol AB.
“These were the first ever LNG bunker deliveries in the port of Travemünde,” Gasum said in a social media post.
“This achievement was made possible through a well-coordinated collaboration between Wallenius SOL our Maritime and Logistics Teams, Sirius Shipping, the Port of Lübeck, Sartori & Berger and BowWave Consulting. Thank you all involved in this project for your engagement.”
“The new delivery location, Lübeck-Travemünde, shows great promise for regular bunker operations, and we are eagerly anticipating our next deliveries.”
