Service phase-in of ANE MAERSK marks debut of world’s first methanol-powered mainliner ⚠️ 📣 Tuesday, February 6th 2024 will be remembered as an historical day in container #shipping as the 16,592 teu ANE MAERSK started her maiden #voyage in Ningbo. This newbuilding is the first mainline ship with methanol dual-fuel propulsion. 📌 She is only the second methanol-powered vessel in the #container fleet following the 2,136 teu LAURA MAERSK, which was christened in mid-September 2023 in #Copenhagen and is now trading in Scandinavia. 👉 While Maersk undoubtedly played a crucial pioneering role in introducing methanol as an alternative fuel in liner shipping, some other carriers already have more capacity for methanol dual-fuel ships on order. The Danish #carrier has not only invested in #ships, but also took the lead in committing to long-term procurement contracts for sustainably-sourced methanol. The current #orderbook already counts 152 units under construction for a total capacity of over 1.75 Mteu. These numbers are expected to increase as methanol has proved to be the fuel of preference in the recent wave of orders. 📊 ✔️ Subscribe to Alphaliner Weekly Newsletter for further details https://bit.ly/2Na5HOA #containershipping #fleet #maritime #news #data #newsletter #shipping #chartering #methanol

𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 A.P. Moller - Maersk! ⚓️The Danish shipping giant is taking a significant step by deepening its commitment to LNG as a marine fuel. ⚓️They've initiated inquiries with shipyards for a series of new container ships and charters that could expand their fleet to 22 𝐋𝐍𝐆 dual-fuelled vessels. ⚓️This strategic pivot demonstrates Maersk’s adaptability and serious intent to build these vessels, despite previously favouring methanol. ⚓️With 25 methanol dual-fuelled ships already in the pipeline, Maersk’s diversified approach highlights its 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬. https://lnkd.in/epAri6tG - TradeWinds #shipping #lng #marinefuels

Maersk Christens its First 16,000 TEU Methanol-Powered Container Ship Maersk Line has christened its first 16,000-TEU dual-fuel methanol container ship, and it will be known as the Ane Maersk. The vessel is named after Ane Maersk Mc-Kinney Uggla, chair of A.P. Moller Holding and the A.P. Moller Foundation, the controlling shareholder in A.P. Moller Maersk. Until 2022 she was vice-chair of A.P. Moller Maersk, but has passed her responsibilities at the firm to her son Robert, the current chairman. The new class of ships represents a new direction for Maersk, and a bold one. Ane Maersk is the world's second methanol-fueled boxship, after the smaller Laura Maersk, which was delivered last year. The larger vessel class has an unusual design for a boxship of this size, with a narrow deckhouse placed far forward and a funnel on the port quarter, maximizing deck space. Ane Maersk will deploy next month on the AE7 service string from Asia to Europe. The ship can run on either methanol or bunker fuel as needed, and Maersk said that she will begin her voyage on a "green" methanol fuel (meeting Maersk's specification for "green"). https://bit.ly/48O8q4Q #methanol #efuel #marine #maritime #futurefuel #sustainable

Maersk has ambitiously set a 2040 goal for net-zero, but uncertainty around green energy prices, as well as contention around who will eat the costs, is forcing them to shift their focus to meet their goals.
