Monjasa in UAE LNG bunkering move

Middle East

Monjasa said on Wednesday it introduces the UAE’s first dedicated LNG bunkering vessel, Green Zeebrugge. Previously known as Engie Zeebrugge, the 5,200 cbm bunkering vessel is owned by Japan's

now 1,262 LNG-fuelled vessels, of which 613 are trading with a further 649 on order – compared to just 62 LNG-fuelled vessels in 2015.

“Monjasa’s role is to keep challenging the status quo and providing new market opportunities to shipowners who are increasingly looking for ways to decarbonize their vessels,” Monjasa CEO Anders Østergaard said.

“Deploying Green Zeebrugge is the first important step in introducing LNG as a new marine fuel option in the UAE. Looking ahead, continued close collaboration with our local maritime partners is crucial in further exploring new supply chains and positioning the UAE as a leading shipping hub in alternative fuels too,” he said.
