In Singapore, Aster and Aether Fuels signed an agreement to develop the first next-generation, commercial-scale SAF production facility in Southeast Asia at Aster Pulau Bukom in Singapore. Combining Aether’s breakthrough technology with Aster’s deep expertise at its Singapore fully integrated refining and chemical hub, this facility will position Singapore at the forefront of energy transformation […]
In Singapore, the Global Centre for Green Fuels (GCGF) has officially launched the Maritime Ethanol & Methanol Alliance (MEMA), a new global platform to coordinate and accelerate the adoption of ethanol and methanol as low-carbon marine fuels. Anchored in Singapore, MEMA brings together shipowners, fuel producers, engine manufacturers, regulators, ports, and class societies to foster […]
In Singapore, iced lattes made from beanless coffee and cow-free proteins pulled from air will be available shortly in a preview at the country’s One Financial Centre. The innovative beverage, named GRe:en Drop Coffee and sold by Ajinomoto Group, starts with mixing conventional coffee with a “coffee extender” made via fermentation by a Singapore startup […]
In Singapore, natural gas is mostly stored under high pressure or cooled into liquid at -162 °C — both methods that are energy-intensive and costly. An alternative approach, called solidified natural gas, locks methane inside an ice-like cage known as a hydrate. But in practice, these hydrates usually form far too slowly to be practical […]
In Singapore, Mol announced the successful completion of biodiesel-blended marine fuel (biofuel) bunkering in Singapore on September 14 on the MOL-owned capsize bulk carrier, Lambert Maru, which serves global mining company, Anglo American. Lambert Maru‘s voyage is now underway, powered by biofuel. This voyage represents an advanced case of utilizing the MOL Group’s carbon inset […]
In Singapore, the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) released its Project LOTUS (Long-term impact of continuous use of biofuels on vessel operations) report. Launched in partnership with NYK Line on May 9, 2024, the six-month trial onboard a pure car and truck carrier (PCTC) assessed the impact of continuous use of a B24 blend, […]
In Singapore, Shell announces a new bio-LNG supply agreement with the KIS GROUP, enabling Shell to supply biomethane, regasified from bio-LNG, to customers in Singapore from 2027. Bio-LNG is derived from organic waste, helps reduce lifecycle emissions, and is a drop-in renewable fuel that requires no major infrastructure changes. This marks the latest addition to […]
In Singapore, the Maritime and Port Authority released a circular to inform the shipping community that the International Maritime Organization’s Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC), at its 83rd session, approved Interim guidance on the carriage of blends of biofuels and MARPOL Annex I cargoes by conventional bunker ships (MEPC.1/Circ.917). MEPC.1/Circ.917 sets out that conventional bunker […]
In Singapore, Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) released a landmark report on the world’s first field validation of tracer technologies in marine biofuel supply chains. Conducted in Singapore, Rotterdam, and other major bunkering hubs, the trials demonstrated that tracers can be integrated into existing marine biofuel supply chain practices without disrupting operations or compromising […]
In Singapore, VINSSEN has signed an MOU with Singapore’s Marinteknik to accelerate the shift toward clean propulsion across Asia. The partnership centers on VINSSEN’s Hydrogen-ready battery-based hybrid systems — designed to evolve from diesel-hybrid to full battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell propulsion as infrastructure matures. Marinteknik contributes 40+ years of ship design and construction expertise […]
