144

Finnish energy company Gasum has performed its first ship-to-ship LNG bunker deliveries in Travemünde, Germany, supplying LNG to two vessels owned by Swedish shipping company Wallenius Sol.

LNG Bunker Deliveries

“These were the first ever LNG bunker deliveries in the port of Travemünde. This achievement was made possible through a well-coordinated collaboration between Wallenius SOL our Maritime and Logistics Teams, Sirius Shipping, the Port of Lübeck, Sartori & Berger, and BowWave Consulting. Thank you all involved in this project for your engagement.

“The new delivery location, Lübeck-Travemünde, shows great promise for regular bunker operations, and we are eagerly anticipating our next deliveries,” Gasum said.

The bunkering operation took place on April 29 and 30 when a total of 700 mt of LNG was supplied by Gasum’s long-term chartered bunker vessel Coralius to Wallenius Sol’s vessels Baltic Enabler and Botnia Enabler.

Multi Fuel Vessel 

Wallenius Sol took delivery of the two ships in 2022. The sister vessels each have a deadweight of 28,000 tons.

The multi-fuel vessels can run on LNG, LBG, diesel, and synthetic diesel. The 1A Super ice class ships have a cargo capacity of 6,442 lane meters (962 TEU) with room for trailers, containers, industrial loads, and high or heavy project loads.
