The consortium led by Japanese shipping company Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (NYK) has received an approval-in-principle (AiP) from ship classification society Nippon Kaiji Kyokai, also known by its brand name ClassNK, for an ammonia-fuelled bunkering vessel, marking a step in sustainable maritime energy development.

This design, engineered by LMG Marin, a subsidiary of Singaporean shipbuilder Seatrium, is set to be further evaluated by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA).

LMG Marin played a pivotal role in the vessel’s design with its advanced technical expertise.

The Hazard Identification Study (HAZID) conducted by LMG Marin was crucial in achieving the AiP, aligning with the International Maritime Organisation’s safety guidelines for ammonia-fuelled ships.
