In the UK, Safety4Sea reported that DNV is launching what it claims to be the industry’s first public tender portal for e-methanol procurement within the European Union and the United Kingdom.
The initiative connects a leading e-methanol producer with industrial offtakers across EU and UK markets, creating a new pathway to secure long-term, reliable supplies of the fuel. DNV has structured a tender to secure long-term offtake agreements for upcoming RFNBO-certified volumes across the EU and UK, according to the report.
According to DNV, the tender enables companies to lock in reliable, price-stable, and regulation-compliant supply, ensuring predictability and alignment with future fuel mandates while reducing exposure to compliance risks. It is open to industrial users, maritime operators, traders, and other organizations committed to net-zero targets and sustainable sourcing.
“By launching this tender, we are applying our neutral expertise to de-risk the procurement process for both producers and offtakers. This is about turning ambition into actionable supply agreements and accelerating the fuel transition in Europe,” said Santiago Blanco, vice president and regional director at DNV.
