Maersk Tankers has secured EU Innovation Fund financing for its Ripple project, retrofitting Very Large Ammonia Carriers (VLACs) to use ammonia as marine fuel. This pioneering initiative aims to demonstrate ammonia’s commercial viability, potentially reducing over 1.2 million tonnes of CO2 emissions over ten years and advancing sustainable shipping practices.
Trafigura has finalized plans for four medium-sized ammonia carriers, marking a significant advancement in ammonia-fueled shipping. Set for delivery starting in 2027, these vessels will feature dual-fuel engines and a capacity of 45,000 cubic meters. This initiative underscores Trafigura’s commitment to exploring alternative fuels and advancing low-carbon solutions in maritime transport.
