The vessel was fueled through a multi-truck-to-ship bunkering operation.

It was the “first-ever LNG bunkering operation” at the Port of Porto, according to Molgas.

The company is now fully prepared to provide LNG at Leixões and plans to extend its services to other Portuguese ports soon.

In July, Molgas, together with Dutch bunker supplier Titan, carried out an LNG delivery to Ilma at the Cruise Port of Amsterdam, marking the first LNG bunkering operation at the port’s cruise terminal.

Molgas owns a 45% stake in Titan Clean Fuels.
