Singapore-based Eastern Pacific Shipping (EPS) has teamed up with Dutch sustainable fuels pioneer GoodFuels Marine for a trial run of residual-fuel equivalent biofuel oil.
Biofuel — 250 metric tonnes of it — was supplied to EPS’s 47,400-dwt MR product tanker Pacific Beryl (built 2010). Its performance will be tested and analysed on board the ship, as well as on other EPS-managed vessels in the future.
