The shipping firm announced the milestone operation in a social media post on Friday.
According to the image above, the 18,500-cbm bunkering vessel, FueLNG Venosa, delivered LNG fuel to EPS’s latest newbuild tanker, Segway.
FueLNG Venosa is on charter to Singapore’s FueLNG, a joint venture consisting of Shell and Seatrium, which recently completed its 500th STS LNG bunkering operation.
EPS completed its first LNG bunkering operation in November 2020, the 50th operation in September 2022, the 100th operation in June 2023, the 250th operation last year, and the 400th operation earlier this year.
The company has a large fleet of LNG-powered vessels, including containerships, tankers, bulkers, and PCTCs.
According to the 2025 ESG report, which EPS released in June, over 50 percent of its fleet, or 173 ships, is designed to operate on alternative fuels such as LNG, LPG, ethane, and soon, ammonia.
“These early investments have delivered significant emission reductions, well ahead of the new IMO targets and in anticipation of alternative green fuels only becoming economically viable in the next decade,” EPS said.
LNG Prime concated EPS to provide further details regarding its LNG dual-fuel fleet.
A spokeswoman for EPS said that the figures provided in the ESG report “are still in place.”
“We don’t usually provide details like capacity or breakdown by segment,” she said.
