NYK has team up with more domestic companies to develop further potential LNG bunkering facilities within Japan.

On this occasion it has teamed with Kyushu Electric Power Co, Saibu Gas Co and The Chugoku Electric Power Co signing a memorandum of understanding.

The four companies plan to examine the potential of starting up a new business to supply LNG bunkers to ships in the Setouchi and Kyushu areas of western Japan.
