Common decarbonisation goal

LNG is a readily available fuel for the market and can meet the needs of the existing fleet

LNG is a readily available fuel for the market and can meet the needs of the existing fleet. The maritime industry is currently under pressure to start cutting its emissions if it is to meet future regulations.

Xia comments about future challenges that industry will face with future fuels: "It is a long journey towards a common decarbonisation goal. It takes time and faith to achieve the goal with the solutions at hand. For sure LNG is not the only option but it will be the one that brings sustainable value to the world."

By joining with Sea-LNG Newport Shipping will be bringing its experience and latest LNG retrofit designs-giving the market a solution that it can adopt to start cutting emissions. Newport Shipping has three retrofit solutions for bulk carriers, tankers and containerships.
