LNG? What LNG?
« on: March 13, 2024, 03:29:59 PM »
"It's well known that the duel-fuel Sun Princess is the brand's first LNG-powered ship. When running on LNG, it generates significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions than MGO. And the cold from the LNG is recovered for cooling needs on board."

The goal is to use LNG all the time, however due to bad weather Saturday in turnaround port Barcelona, the LNG barge was unable to come alongside and bunker. So it's MGO for this trip.

Sun Princess is only approved to bunker LNG in Barcelona but the company hopes for approvals in Civitavecchia (Rome) and Marseille."

Who really cares as long as they don't add a surcharge for using fuel oil.  ::)
