LNG

Gazprom Neft, the Russian oil and gas company and refiner, said it was looking for more opportunities in the LNG maritime fuel market as it awaits the delivery of the first Russian LNG bunkering vessel currently under construction in Singapore.

The American Bureau of Shipping, the US maritime classification society, and Singapore-based Keppel Offshore and Marine said they were currently completing key features of the world’s first smart LNG bunkering vessel.

Keppel Offshore and Marine and French LNG storage technology firm GTT have signed a technical assistance and licensing agreement, enabling the Singaporean company to seek more contracts in the bunkering, floating storage and power businesses.
