AURAMARINE DELIVERS METHANOL FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM FOR TWO TERNTANK HYBRID TANKERS
Agreement is a natural continuation of the partnership following the delivery of methanol fuel supply systems for three of Terntank's 15,000 DWT hybrid tankers over the past 12 months.
Turku, Finland [date]: Auramarine, the leading fuel supply systems pioneer for the marine, power and process industries, announced today that it has signed an agreement to provide its methanol fuel supply system to two vessels within Terntank's fleet of next generation oil and chemical tankers. The vessels operate with wind-assisted propulsion and dual-fuel engines capable of running on MGO, biofuels, and methanol. The delivery of Auramarine's methanol fuel supply system is scheduled for xxxx and the tankers will be delivered in Q1 2027 from China Merchant's Jinling shipyard, Yangzhou.
Commenting on the agreement, John Bergman, CEO, Auramarine, said: "We are delighted to announce that Terntank has once again selected Auramarine as their preferred methanol fuel supply system provider for their project- the second time within a year.
"As well as price and availability, a key element of driving the widespread uptake of future fuels is to ensure that the right bunkering and onboard operational infrastructure is in place. Today's agreement confirms that we are on the right path. At Auramarine, we are committed to supporting the shipping industry's decarbonization and will continue to innovate to bring new solutions to market which will effectively support the green energy transition."
Terntank comment proposal (to be discussed with Terntank) Firstname Lastname, Title at Terntank, added: "Our new vessels demonstrate Terntank's commitment to delivering sustainable shipping practices and supporting the industry as it looks to meet decarbonisation targets. The hybrid tankers project, which is among the first of its kind, has required close collaboration with a number of partners. And given our recent positive experience with Auramarine, they were the natural choice to provide the methanol supply system for these new vessels."
