LNG

Oct 7 (LNGJ) - Nauticor, the German LNG supplier and a subsidiary of the Linde Group, said it conducted its first ship-to-ship LNG bunkering operation in a German port at the Elbehafen, part of the Brunsbuttel Ports zone where the country's first import terminal will be sited.

Nauticor said the trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD) “Scheldt River” received the LNG fuel from the bunker supply vessel “Kairos”, owned by Babcock Schulte Energy and operated on behalf of Nauticor. The dredger “Scheldt River” received 300 cubic metres of LNG as the vessel continues to conduct maintenance dredging works on the Lower Elbe River.
