據(jù)世界能源新聞2021年5月13日報(bào)道，2021年5月10日，由日本郵船散貨運(yùn)輸（亞洲）有限公司（NYK Bulkship (Asia) Pte. Ltd.）所有的“Takaroa Sun號”雙燃料甲醇化學(xué)品油輪參與了被視為世界上第一次駁船對船的甲醇燃料加注。

　　首次駁船對船的甲醇燃料加注作業(yè)是在租船公司W(wǎng)aterfront 船務(wù)有限公司的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，與鹿特丹港、皇家荷蘭孚寶集團(tuán)和TankMatch B.V.合作在鹿特丹港進(jìn)行并完成的。

　　與常規(guī)燃料油相比，甲醇燃料在燃燒過程中最多可減少15%的碳排放，并減少大約99%的硫氧化物(SOx)排放。顆粒物(PM)和氮氧化物(NOx)排放也顯著減少。

　　甲醇有望成為未來船舶的下一代燃料之一，其對環(huán)境的影響很小。

　　World's First Barge-to-Ship Methanol Bunkering Carried out in Rotterdam

　　On May 10, 2021, the methanol-dual fueled chemical tanker Takaroa Sun, owned by NYK Bulkship (Asia) Pte. Ltd. participated in what is touted as the world’s first barge-to-ship bunkering of methanol fuel.

　　The bunkering of methanol fuel was conducted in Rotterdam port under the leadership of the charterer Waterfront Shipping Company Limited, together with the cooperation of the Port of Rotterdam, Royal Vopak N.V., and TankMatch B.V.

　　Methanol fuel produces up to 15% less carbon emissions during combustion than conventional fuel oil and reduces sulfur oxide (SOx) emissions by approximately 99%. Particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) are significantly reduced as well. Methanol is expected to be one of the next-generation fuels for future ships that will have a low environmental impact.
