Methane in shipping: LNG-fuelled ships and the switch to low-GHG methane
About
As the LNG‑capable fleet continues to expand, demand for low‑GHG methane, including bio-methane and e‑methane, is expected to grow in the coming decades. With around 800 LNG‑capable ships in operation and more than 600 on order, the maritime sector has already established a scale of deployment, operational experience, and safety standards that sets LNG apart from other alternative fuels. DNV’s white paper examines how this existing LNG fleet and infrastructure can ease the transition to low‑GHG methane.
