April 29 (LNG) - Grupo HAM, the Spanish LNG fuel provider building a filling station network in Europe, has opened a new service facility at a key French traffic axis for truckers and vehicles. HAM said the LNG station is at Montmarault in France, located on the road to Moulins near exit 11 of the A71.
