據(jù)美國鉆井網(wǎng)站2022年9月15日報(bào)道，丹麥馬士基供應(yīng)服務(wù)公司的新產(chǎn)品ECO Offshore在實(shí)現(xiàn)碳中和運(yùn)營方面又邁進(jìn)了重要一步。這個(gè)新產(chǎn)品是在低碳生物燃料與船用輕油混合試驗(yàn)成功后推出的。據(jù)馬士基供應(yīng)服務(wù)公司介紹，這個(gè)新產(chǎn)品能夠減少海上作業(yè)的碳排放。

馬士基供應(yīng)服務(wù)公司首席商務(wù)官Jonas Munch Agerskov表示：“我們很高興能夠用我們的新產(chǎn)品ECO Offshore為客戶的脫碳之路提供支持。馬士基供應(yīng)服務(wù)公司致力于盡我們所能促進(jìn)海上油氣行業(yè)的綠色轉(zhuǎn)型，既減少我們自身的碳足跡，也幫助我們的客戶實(shí)現(xiàn)業(yè)務(wù)和價(jià)值鏈的脫碳。”

馬士基供應(yīng)服務(wù)公司的新產(chǎn)品ECO Offshore使用加氫處理植物油（HVO），這是一種安全、可持續(xù)的生物燃料，可以取代傳統(tǒng)的化石燃料，不會(huì)對(duì)食物來源造成傷害或消耗，并提供與傳統(tǒng)燃料相同的性能。馬士基供應(yīng)服務(wù)公司將在其全球船隊(duì)中使用這種生物燃料，將減少的碳排放傳遞給購買我們新產(chǎn)品ECO Offshore的客戶。”

去年，與荷蘭綠色科技初創(chuàng)公司The Ocean Cleanup合作，在錨處理船Maersk Tender上成功進(jìn)行了生物燃料試驗(yàn)。在太平洋的一次海上清潔租船中，生物燃料被混合到船用輕油中，導(dǎo)致在六周的包租中減少了38.95噸的碳排放。該試驗(yàn)證實(shí)了這種生物燃料是一種可行的替代燃料，它在安全性和性能上不會(huì)打折扣，而且不需要額外的培訓(xùn)或船舶升級(jí)。

馬士基供應(yīng)服務(wù)公司首席運(yùn)營官M(fèi)ark Handin表示：“綠色轉(zhuǎn)型是我們戰(zhàn)略的核心，我們已經(jīng)制定了雄心勃勃的目標(biāo)，以實(shí)現(xiàn)我們的業(yè)務(wù)和船隊(duì)的脫碳。我們正在探索實(shí)現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)的許多舉措和解決方案，而生物燃料無疑在我們實(shí)現(xiàn)2040年凈零運(yùn)營目標(biāo)的路線圖中發(fā)揮著重要作用。因此，新產(chǎn)品ECO Offshore對(duì)我們來說是一個(gè)令人興奮的進(jìn)步。”

Maersk Supply Service Trials Carbon-Neutral Biofuel

Maersk Supply Service has made a step further towards carbon-neutral operation with its new product, ECO Offshore. The product is launched at the back of a successful trial of a blend of low-carbon biofuel with marine gasoil aboard its vessels. The product enables a reduction of carbon emissions from offshore operations, according to the company.

“We are delighted to be able to support our customers’ decarbonization journeys with ECO Offshore. Maersk Supply Service is committed to doing what we can to facilitate a green transition in the offshore industry, both by reducing our own carbon footprint and by enabling our customers to decarbonise their operations and value chain,” says Jonas Munch Agerskov, Chief Commercial Officer at Maersk Supply Service.

ECO Offshore uses Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), a safe, sustainable biofuel that replaces conventional fossil fuels without causing harm or depletion to food sources and provides the same performance as conventional fuels. Maersk Supply Service will use the biofuel across its global fleet, passing on the carbon reductions to customers purchasing ECO Offshore.

In 2021, biofuel was successfully trialed aboard the anchor handler Maersk Tender, in partnership with the Dutch green-tech start-up, The Ocean Cleanup. During an ocean-cleaning charter in the Pacific Ocean, biofuel was blended into the marine gasoil, leading to a carbon emissions saving of 38.95 metric tons for the six-week charter. The trial confirmed the biofuel as a viable alternative that does not compromise on safety or performance, and does not require additional training or vessel upgrades.

“The green transition is at the heart of our strategy and we have set ambitious targets to decarbonize our operations and our fleet. We are exploring many initiatives and solutions to achieve this and biofuel certainly plays an important role in the roadmap to our 2040 target of net-zero operations. ECO Offshore therefore represents an exciting step forward for us,” says Mark Handin, Chief Operating Officer at Maersk Supply Service.
