LPG is significantly cleaner than fossil fuels

The maritime industry needs to improve its carbon footprints – especially its emissions to air. In an ideal world all vessels and carriers would operate on carbon-free fuels from tomorrow, but this is not possible by a long stretch.

While we need to undertake this transition, replacing traditional fossil fuels altogether, LNG is for the time being among the best alternatives fuels for the maritime industry.

Switching to LNG provides significant advantages, by meeting increasing regulatory requirements, offering enhanced competitiveness, and last but not least reduction of CO2-emissions and other harmful pollutants.
