This initiative will be undertaken in collaboration with Canadian shipping firm Seaspan Energy.

Panam LNG will deploy the Seaspan Garibaldi, a 7,600-cbm LNG bunkering vessel owned by Seaspan Energy, to carry out LNG bunkering at ports on Panama's Atlantic side.

The company plans to secure LNG bunkering slots through spot contracts for 2025.

“LNG bunkering operations are expected to take place either at a local terminal (SimOps) or at a designated LNG bunkering anchorage specified by the Panama Canal Authority (ACP) or the Panama Maritime Authority (AMP),” AES said.
