A first for Titan LNG at the Port of Rotterdam

Titan LNG has secured a first in the LNG bunkering market by bunkering the Wes Amelie chartered by Unifeeder A/S, a retrofitted 1000 TEU container vessel in the Port of Rotterdam with six trucks in total discharging two trucks simultaneously. This resulted in reduced downtime for the vessel.

Approval for the operation in the Prins Willem Alexanderhaven was obtained after discussions with all stakeholders under supervision of the Port of Rotterdam. Titan LNG illustrated its ability to safely and with zero-venting of methane, deliver the LNG with its transfer system that enables two truck to discharge via one bunkering hose.

Titan LNG’s Commercial Director Marine, Michael Schaap said: “We are aiming to use this perfect spot more frequently for bunkering sea going vessels as the quay is suitable and well located for this activity and has sufficient draft.”
