Furetank completed its first bunkering of 200 tonnes of ISCC-certified Bio-LNG in collaboration with environmental commodity traders STX Group and Molgas. The tanker vessel Fure Viken, now powered by this renewable fuel, highlights the growing role of Bio-LNG in meeting stricter EU environmental regulations.
Anchored outside Mongstad, Norway, Fure Viken received its Bio-LNG bunker delivery, ensuring compliance with the FuelEU Maritime Regulation, which mandates a 2% reduction in greenhouse gas intensity for vessel fuel by 2025.
Bio-LNG follows a mass-balanced approach, where biomethane of certified origins is injected into the gas grid, and an equivalent amount is withdrawn and liquefied for maritime use. The FuelEU Maritime Regulation treats mass-balanced and off-grid biomethane equally, easing supply constraints and accelerating the adoption of renewable fuels in shipping.
“We used biomethane of the highest environmental standard available in the market.
