LNG Bunkering Pilot Reducing Emissions On 11 April, the pilot for the bunkering of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) via the Truck to Ship method was successfully launched in the port of Vlissingen. Bunkering of this renewable marine fuel emphasises port authority Zeeland Seaports’ objectives to reduce overall emissions. The port authority will determine whether consistent LNG bunkering will be realised in the port based on the results of the pilot, which will last until the end of the year.
