- ABS releases detailed guide for dual-fuel propulsion in newbuild vessels.
- Report covers LNG, methanol, and ammonia-based fuel combinations.
- ABS highlights key factors for future-ready fleet planning.
Choosing an appropriate dual-fuel propulsion system for a new building means closely examining several important considerations: compliance with regulations, availability of infrastructure, safety, operating flexibility, and long-term economic efficiency, reports ABS.
ABS Provides Advice to Shipowners
To help shipowners through these difficult choices, ABS has published a new guide, ABS Dual-Fuel Solutions for Newbuild Vessels. This comprehensive report provides an extensive overview of the dual-fuel propulsion scene, strongly emphasising hydrocarbon-based fuels in combination with liquefied natural gas (LNG), methanol, and ammonia.
Evaluating Multiple Fuel Options
“Shipowners are looking at all fuels, including alternative fuels and dual-fuel combinations that can help them meet both current and future regulatory standards. As a trusted advisor for the maritime industry, ABS provides in-depth analysis in this report, letting owners know what to consider and what to pay close attention to as they are planning new vessels,” said Stergios Stamopoulos, ABS Director, Global Sustainability.
Remaining Ahead of Regulatory Evolutions
With both extensive technical knowledge and visionary solutions, ABS is working with shipowners to ensure not only adherence to current environmental regulations but also foresight in meeting future needs.
