Dutch provider OCI Global has clinched an exclusive deal to supply bunkers for the first container ship to ever run on green methanol.

The company said it will provide bio-methanol for AP Moller-Maersk’s 2,100-teu Maersk Solstice when it makes its debut voyage this summer.

“This global maiden voyage is an important milestone in the decarbonisation of the maritime industry, providing proof-of-concept for green methanol as a safe, efficient, commercially ready fuel for global shipping,” OCI said.
