Singapore’s first LNG bunkering vessel delivered to owner

By Baird Maritime - January 5, 2021.

Keppel Offshore and Marine (Keppel O&M) has delivered Singapore’s first LNG bunkering vessel, FueLNG Bellina, to FueLNG.

Designed by Keppel Marine and Deepwater Technology (KMDTech) and built in Keppel O&M’s Nantong shipyard in China, the newbuild will provide LNG bunker to LNG-powered vessels that call at the Port of Singapore.

FueLNG Bellina has a cargo capacity of 7,500 cubic metres and a barge-like extended flat surface to provide bunker to a wide range of vessels. Keppel claims it is also highly manoeuvrable, minimising tug utilisation during bunkering operations and in turn reducing fuel consumption and emissions.
