05OCT2018 - NEWS - Dutch shipbuilding group Damen gets contract from Eesti Gaas for the construction of LNG bunkering vessel

Dutch shipbuilding group Damen has recently received contract from the Estonian natural gas company Eesti Gaas for the construction of the first short-sea LNG bunkering vessels to operate in the Baltic Sea. The vessel, which is scheduled for delivery in September 2020, will be used to provide ship-to-ship LNG bunkering services to vessels, particulary in the passenger, RoRo and RoPax sectors that require fast turnaround times. Its construction is also expected to help accelerate the wider adoption of LNG as a clean-burning alternative fuel in the North-east Baltic Sea.
