Gasum’s LNG Bunker Vessel Coralius Achieves Milestone with 600th Bunkering Operation, Coralius Continues to Play a Key Role in Promoting Clean Energy Transition in Marine Industry.
Gasum’s state-of-the-art LNG bunker vessel, Coralius, reached a significant milestone this week as it successfully completed its 600th bunkering operation. The remarkable achievement underscores the vessel’s crucial role in providing cleaner and more sustainable fueling solutions for the maritime sector. With a ship-to-ship bunkering operation near Helsingborg, Sweden, on July 13th, Coralius fueled the oil tanker Tern Sea, further solidifying its position as a reliable and environmentally friendly energy supplier to diverse vessel types.
Since its inaugural bunkering operation in 2017, Coralius has demonstrated its exceptional performance by safely delivering an impressive total of 137,180 metric tons of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to a wide range of vessels. Its bunkering services have catered to various maritime segments, including oil tankers, car carriers, cruise ships, expedition vessels, and ferries. By supplying LNG as an alternative marine fuel, Coralius has contributed significantly to reducing sulphur oxide (SOx) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, while also lowering carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions compared to traditional marine fuels.
LNG has emerged as a game-changer in the maritime industry, aligning with the global push towards cleaner energy sources and sustainability. Coralius consistent and successful bunkering operations have played an instrumental role in facilitating the adoption of LNG as a viable fuel option for ship owners and operators. The vessel’s capability to deliver LNG directly to ships ensures a seamless transition to this cleaner fuel, promoting a greener future for the shipping industry.
As the demand for cleaner and more sustainable fuels continues to grow, Gasum’s LNG bunker vessel remains at the forefront of this energy transition. Coralius exemplifies Gasum’s commitment to providing innovative solutions that meet the industry’s evolving environmental needs. By partnering with Gasum, ship operators can access a reliable and efficient bunkering service that not only complies with stringent emissions regulations but also contributes to a significant reduction in their vessels’ carbon footprint.
The 600th bunkering operation by Coralius marks a remarkable achievement and a testament to the vessel’s ongoing success in supporting the shipping industry’s sustainability goals. Gasum, through its dedicated efforts and expertise, continues to drive the adoption of LNG as a marine fuel, demonstrating the company’s commitment to a cleaner and more environmentally friendly future for maritime transportation.
Gasum’s LNG bunker vessel Coralius remains a beacon of progress in the bunkering industry, showcasing the positive impact of sustainable energy solutions and paving the way for a greener tomorrow.
