Eastern Pacific Shipping has thrown its weight behind an existing study into ammonia bunkers being conducted by a top Singapore university.

The study by Nanyang Technological University (NTU), which was first announced in January, is aiming to create a high-level understanding of the ammonia supply chain and bunkering safety.

For the study, Eastern Pacific said it will be lending its “industry-leading expertise in the loading, transporting, and discharging of gas, including ammonia, as a cargo”.
