Singapore-based EPS achieves 150th LNG bunkering operation milestone

Singapore-based Eastern Pacific Shipping (EPS) on Monday (5 February) announced the successful completion of its 150th ship-to-ship (STS) LNG bunkering operation.

The firm said the milestone operation took place at Yangshan, Shanghai with EPS-managed 15k TEU dual fuel vessel, CMA CGM Bali, receiving 9,498m³ of LNG from bunker vessel Hai Gang Wei Lai managed by Shanghai International Port Group (SIPG).  

“A significant milestone indeed since our first LNG bunkering operations in November 2020. To date, we have cumulatively received 404,958MT of LNG over our fleet of DF Vessels,” it said in a social media post. 

“We believe that sustainability begins with accountability and we continue to be committed to leading the industry’s energy transition as we work towards lowering our emissions powered by cleaner alternatives.”
