Finnish state-owned energy company Gasum has signed a long-term deal with Norwegian ferry operator Fjord1 to supply liquefied natural gas (LNG) to the latter’s ferries.
According to a statement by Gasum, the agreement covers fuel supply for four main ferries and one backup ferry.
Gasum did not provide further details regarding the agreement.
The ferries operate the daily Arsvagen–Mortavika route connecting Stavanger and Haugesund along E39.
Gasum noted that it will bunker the ferries truck-to-ship at both ends of the route, “requiring precise scheduling to keep ferry operations running smoothly.”
The company supplies LNG and bio-LNG to different types of maritime customers, from service vessels to containerships, across North-Western Europe.
Gasum recently said it had “significantly” increased its maritime liquefied biomethane (bio-LNG) sales over the last year.
According to Gasum, the share of biomethane out of all gas volumes sold to its maritime customers increased from 0.8 percent in 2024 to 12.3 percent in 2025.
