Anthony Veder’s 6500 cbm LPG/LEG/LNG carrier Coral Anthelia has been retrofitted with a dual-fuel (DF) engine that enables it to run on boil-off gas when transporting LNG.
Having successfully completed its sea trials, the vessel operates in the North Sea and Baltic Sea and regularly loads LNG at the Rotterdam Gate Terminal.
'This breakthrough innovation in the use of LNG for short sea shipping shows that retrofitting a tanker to run on LNG is both technically and financially viable,' says Anthony Veder CEO Jan Valkier.
