The first bunkering of liquefied natural gas (LNG) while a vessel was loaded was conducted in the Port of Gothenburg on 27 October. This was conducted through simultaneous operations (SIMOP) principles in vessel Tern Ocean. Ship-to-ship bunkering of LNG has also been launched in the port earlier in October. A total of seven LNG bunkerings has been conducted in a couple of weeks. According to an EU regulation on alternative fuels, bunkering of LNG should be possible in key Swedish ports by 2025.
