    TOTALENERGIES Marine Fuels has completed its first refuelling of a Hapag-Lloyd container vessel in Singapore with UCOME (used cooking oil) marine biofuel, reports Ventura, California's gCaptain.

    This inaugural bunker operation marks the start of a term supply agreement between the two companies, which commits TotalEnergies to provide VLSFO (very low sulphur fuel oil) blended with 24 per cent second-generation, waste-based and ISCC-certified UCOME to Hapag-Lloyd's fleet.

    Based on a well-to-wake assessment, this B24 biofuel blend will reduce approximately 20 per cent of greenhouse gas emissions compared with conventional fuel oil.

    As part of this milestone operation, Hapag-Lloyd's 15,000-TEU Afif, took on 2,000 tonnes of biofuel. The ship-to-ship biofuel transfer was made possible with the services rendered by Jurong Port Universal Terminal.

    Said Hapag fuelling chief Jan Christensen: "This is another early step for Hapag-Lloyd on our decarbonisation journey towards a carbon-free environment by 2045."
