Option lifted on two additional 46,000 m3 Midsize LPG/ammonia carriers

March 2023

The newly ordered vessels will be equipped with dual fuel propulsion engines (ammonia and conventional marine fuel). The MGC’s are due for delivery first half of 2026 and will be worlds first ships equipped with two-stroke ammonia fueled engines. This innovation establishes EXMAR’s commitment to offer its customers the ability to ship their goods near carbon neutral when used with green ammonia and further reduces othe emissions such as SOx. Air pollutants related to carbon (like black carbon, unburned hydrocarbons, methane slip, and carbon monoxide) are eliminated. Decarbonization is a significant transition, and success requires collaboration across the entire supply chain. Ammonia holds promise as a clean and efficient fuel for two-stroke marine engines, contributing to a greener and more sustainable maritime industry.
