据离岸工程4月4日消息称,荷兰渡轮公司雷德里奇多克森公司与泰坦液化天然气公司签署了液化天然气燃料供应协议,该公司向船舶市场供应和运输液化天然气。
两家公司都签署了长期协议,为威廉姆德弗拉明和威廉姆巴伦茨这两艘新建渡轮供应液化天然气作为运输燃料。
这些船只将每周用卡车装载燃料。两艘渡轮都将在前往荷兰维利兰岛和特谢林岛的渡轮航线上运行。
由于这两艘船只只使用液化天然气作为燃料,渡轮服务可以以一种更加环保的方式提供,减少联合国教科文组织(UNESCO)遗产区瓦登泽(Waddenzee)的有害排放。
雷德里奇多克森公司运营主管理查德•德•弗里斯解释道:“经过一段紧张的准备工作,我们发现泰坦液化天然气是为我们的船舶供应液化天然气的最佳合作伙伴,基于一个共同的理念,即液化天然气是环保航运业的一种很好的转型燃料,我们期待着在哈林根共同准备首批燃料补给。”
泰坦液化天然气公司首席运营官罗纳德•范•塞尔姆表示:“我们非常高兴与多克森签署了长期合作协议,两家公司之间有着良好的合作关系,我们很自豪能参与这个开创性的项目。我们确信多克森的乘客们会感谢为减少渡轮对环境的影响而做出的努力。”
这些船是在越南建造的,目前正在前往哈林根进行最后的装配和调试。预计今年晚些时候将会有第一批船只通过。
每周这些船只将在哈林根的雷德里奇多克森地点用三辆卡车加注一次燃料,以有效的方式确保最短的补给时间。
