Wagenborg’s successfully trials co-processed marine fuel in transatlantic voyage
In the Netherlands, an F-class vessel recently completed Wagenborg’s first Transatlantic voyage sailing on co-processed marine fuel. This shipment – requested by one of its customers – illustrated the ease to switch to this type of a drop-in biofuel, resulting in a 68% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions on this specific voyage.
The entire fleet of MPP vessels is able to bunker the ISO 8217 compliant co-processed marine fuel, since no investment in onboard equipment is required to use this sustainable drop-in marine fuel. The fuel is produced using ISCC PLUS certified raw materials, such as vegetable oils, used cooking oil, or animal fat, which may reduce GHG emissions up to 80% over the lifecycle, when compared to fossil fuels.
