Aiming to fulfill its ambition to increase marine market LNG and bio-LNG availability in northwestern European, Finnish-based energy company Gasum is chartering in a new 7,800 cubic meter bunker vessel, to be named Celsius,<\/em> that will deliver these fuels to its customers starting in 2027.<\/p>\n

The Celsius will be owned by a joint venture between Gasum and Swedish shipping company Sirius Shipping and will be built by the RMK Marine shipyard in Istanbul, Turkey.<\/p>\n

Sirius Shipping and Gasum have a long history together, as Gasum has been the charterer of the Sirius-owned LNG bunker vessel Coralius <\/a><\/em>since 2017 and Sirius has been managing Gasum\u2019s bunkering vessel Seagas<\/em> since 2012.<\/p>\n

Sirius says that experience from the success of the Coralius <\/em>have contributed to the new vessel\u2019s design, with larger cargo capacity, lower fuel consumption and low emission technologies. It will be equipped with a hybrid battery solution for peak shaving, both for main and auxiliary engines and as a safety backup.<\/p>\n

Designed by Sirius in collaboration with Sweden\u2019s FKAB Marine Design<\/a>, Celsius <\/em>will have the following main particulars;<\/p>\n
