Dutch LNG supplier Titan and Japan’s shipping giant K Line have completed the first LNG bunkering operation for K Line’s car carrier under a new contract.
On April 5, Titan’s chartered bunkering vessel, Alice Cosulich, delivered LNG to K Line’s PCTC, Pontus Highway, according to Titan.
Titan said in a social media post that the bunkering operation took place at the ICO terminal in Belgium’s Zeebrugge.
The Dutch firm did not provide further information regarding the operation or the long-term contract.
Titan said K Line is actively investing in dual-fuel LNG vessels as an intermediate step towards decarbonization.
In addition, K Line’s fleet of LNG carriers continues to expand.
Before this operation, Titan and Japan’s shipping giant MOL completed the first LNG and bio-LNG bunkering operation for MOL’s car carrier under a new multi-delivery contract.
Alice Cosulich delivered 500 tons of bio-LNG and 400 tons of conventional LNG to MOL’s PCTC, Celeste Ace, in Zeebrugge.
