Danish marine fuels supplier Monjasa is strengthening its LNG bunkering business in the United Arab Emirates by chartering a dedicated floating storage unit. The company, which recently completed UAE’s first LNG bunkering via NYK’s chartered-in 5,000 cu m Green Zeebrugge is now bringing in an LNG carrier Shandong Juniper from ADNOC Logistics & Services. The 2004-built 138,000 cu m unit will join the Monjasa fleet for nine months by mid-January as an FSU. “By serving as a floating storage unit and performing cargo operations, the Singapore-flagged Shandong Juniper becomes a key component in tying together Monjasa’s new operations,” the company said in a release. The first LNG bunkering operation took place in Dubai on January 4, delivering about 3,000 cu m of the super-chilled fuel to the Costa Smeralda cruiser. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1_95_0_1_2'); }); TagsDenmark United Arab Emirates
