Greece-based company probunkers is taking one more step towards the implementation of its LNG bunkering project by inviting stakeholders’ proposals for the design of the company’s LNG bunkering vessels (LNGBVs).
As part of its new project, probunkers plans to design, build and operate a fleet of modern, eco-friendly LNG supply vessels.
At this stage, the company is interested in building seven ships which will operate in various ports worldwide.
probunkers invites companies to submit initial concept design proposals, along with outline specification and general arrangement for such type of vessel. Proposals can be submitted until March 29, 2019.
As the expansion of LNG as a marine fuel is rapid into shipping, probunkers is turning into this investment opportunity by building a reliable global-scale LNG bunkering network.
The company wants to contribute to the development of LNG marine infrastructure by providing LNG bunkering services and aims to be among the early movers who will support the future of sustainable shipping and green energy.
probunkers Holding was established in 2017 in Cyprus, with its headquarters being in Athens. The company will have shareholding control over a group of companies operating in the sectors of shipping and energy.
The shipping division will design, build, own and operate a fleet of LNG supply vessels, while the commercial division will have a presence and operate in seven geographical locations around the world, through local branches.
