The current EU legislation puts tighter limits on emissions of seagoing vessels in European waters. Emissions Control Areas (ECAs) force the operators of vessels to use propulsion systems that result in lower emissions. One of the possible solutions is the use of LNG as a shipping fuel.
The European Commission's Directorate General for Mobility and Transport (DG MOVE) has launched a study on the completion of an EU framework on LNG-fuelled ships and its relevant fuel provision infrastructure.
You are cordially invited to discuss with us the preliminary results of this study.
