Azane Fuel Solutions is developing the world's first ammonia bunkering terminals. Our company has developed groundbreaking technology designed to deliver fast, safe, and reliable bunkering of ammonia to ships. Our commitment extends beyond bunkering solutions, as we actively contribute to the decarbonization of the shipping industry by innovating technologies for ammonia bunkering terminals, ammonia cargo handling systems, and ammonia fuel handling systems. Headquartered in Oslo and Sandefjord, Norway, we are backed by solid owners with leading positions in the maritime sector and ammonia industry: Amon Maritime, ECOnnect Energy, Navigator Gas and Yara Growth Ventures. In collaboration with Yara Clean Ammonia, Azane is preparing, in Scandinavia, the world's first ammonia bunkering network, planned to commence construction in 2024, with the first bunkering operations anticipated to be operational by 2025. This initiative serves as a landmark demonstration of ammonia's potential as a carbon-free, secure, and reliable fuel source for the shipping industry.

    On Friday, Fortescue was showing its ammonia fuelled Green Pioneer to members of the SGMF at Canary Wharf in London. This large vessel has through numerous running hours utilized ammonia for auxiliary power and propulsion the past year. During my years in DNV Maritime Classification, I was heavily involved in realizing this project through facilitating and handling the regulatory approval process. Finally seeing the real life product of Fortescue's efforts into converting this vessel to ammonia fuel is inspiring; Although there are still both technical and regulatory hurdles to overcome, Fortescue are putting considerable efforts into realizing ammonia as a marine fuel. We in AZANE Fuel Solutions are also working hard to enable this fuel switch.

    15 prosjekter tildeles forprosjektstøtte for å utrede konkrete investeringer i bunkringsanlegg for ammoniakk som drivstoff til maritim sektor. Prosjektene dekker norskekysten fra Oslofjorden i sør til Troms i nord. – Vi mottok flere søknader enn vi hadde forventet i denne runden. Det viser at mange aktører arbeider målrettet med prosjekter for å tilby bunkring av ammoniakk til maritim sektor, og det er gledelig å se. Det sier Børge Noddeland, som er ansvarlig for støtteprogramet «Forprosjekt maritim teknologi». 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐤𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐞 𝐟å𝐫 𝐬𝐭ø𝐭𝐭𝐞: • Ammonia AS • AZANE Fuel Solutions • Boreal sjø AS • Grieg Group ammonia distribution vessels AS • Hitra kommuneIverson eFuels AS • Neptun Tromsø AS • Skiga AS Prosjektene får opp til 500 000 kroner i støtte, og har seks måneder til å modne prosjektene fram mot en mulig investeringsbeslutning og realisering av prosjektene. I neste runde vil de beste prosjektene kunne søke om investeringsstøtte fra Enova til det kommende støtteprogrammet «Bunkringsanlegg for ammoniakk.» – For å lykkes med satsingen er vi avhengige av gode prosjekter i alle ledd av verdikjedene. Nå er et viktig neste skritt å få etablert infrastruktur for bunkring av ammoniakk langs norskekysten. Det er derfor svært positivt å se at så mange aktører arbeider med denne delen av verdikjeden, og at den geografiske spredningen av prosjektene dekker store deler av norskekysten sier Sigmund Ø. Størset, målansvarlig for hydrogen i Enova. Rune Holmen Arve Solheim Astrid Lilliestråle

    ⚓ 𝐒𝐭ø𝐭𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐥 14 𝐧𝐲𝐞 𝐧𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐬𝐟𝐚𝐫𝐭ø𝐲 𝐢 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞 ⚓ Enova har tildelt støtte til sju ammoniakkskip og to hydrogenskip. I tillegg til fem elektriske skip og ett ladeanlegg. Dette gjelder tildelinger knytta til programmene Ammoniakk i fartøy, Hydrogen i fartøy og Batteri i nullutslippsskip. Disse skipene skal bygges for nullutslipp og seile utslippsfritt fra dag én. – Hydrogen og ammoniakk vil være viktige energibærere i det grønne skiftet, og satsingen på grønn skipsfart er riktig og nødvendig. Det gir arbeidsplasser over hele landet og bidrar til at norsk næringsliv konkurrerer i verdenstoppen, sier klima- og miljøminister Tore O. Sandvik. Til sammen får hydrogen- og ammoniakkskipene over 940 millioner kroner i støtte. Målet er å demonstrere hydrogen og ammoniakk som nullutslippsløsninger i den maritime næringen, gjennom å etablere de første fungerende verdikjedene for hydrogen og ammoniakk i Norge. Totalt fikk vi 31 søknader til denne søknadsrunden for hydrogen- og ammoniakk-programmene, og blant disse er det ni søkere som nå får innvilga støtte. – På grunn av den konkurransebaserte formen i støtteordningen, hadde vi ikke mulighet for dialog under søknadsbehandlingen. Men vi vil tilby møter med alle de som dessverre ikke nådde opp denne gangen. Det sier Elin Ulstad Stokland, som jobber med maritim transport i Enova. – Vi oppfordrer alle til å søke ved ny frist, som trolig blir i slutten av første kvartal 2025. Selskapene som nå får støtte er: * Eidesvik Offshore ASA, DOF Group, Aurora Offshore AS, Grieg Maritime Group, Norbjørn AS (ammoniakk) * Cruise Service AS (hydrogen) * Salten Shipping AS, K. Sætre & Sønner AS, Nidarø AS, The Fjords DA, og Nova Sea AS (batteri) * Plug | Shore Power & Maritime Charging (ladeanlegg)

    Shipping is responsible for 2-3% of global carbon emissions 🚢 And we have an ambition to halve the maritime emissions associated with our Norwegian operations by 2030 📉 So we’re excited to announce the signing of a contract with Eidesvik Offshore ASA for the use of the world’s first ammonia-powered supply vessel – the Viking Energy. The LNG-powered vessel has been under contract to Equinor since delivery in 2003. When the vessel is fully converted to ammonia and put into operation in 2026, its emissions will be cut by at least 70%. In addition to continuing to use the vessel in operations, we will contribute significantly to funding the conversion to ammonia operation. We have also made an inquiry in the market for more supply vessels capable of running on ammonia. Find out more 👉https://bit.ly/4dWNACy
