In January 2021, Q-LNG Transport and Shell Trading (US) Co. announced that the first offshore liquified natural gas (LNG) bunkering articulated tug-barge (ATB) in the U.S., the Q-LNG 4000, was ready for operations. Designed to provide ship-to-ship transfers of LNG to vessels utilizing LNG as a fuel source and ship-to-shore transfers to small scale marine distribution infrastructure in the Gulf of Mexico and overseas, the ATB is an integral part of the LNG infrastructure along the southeast U.S. coast, the companies said. Q-LNG officials said the development of marine LNG infrastructure is an important step in the safe, reliable transportation and delivery of LNG in North America. |
