The US Navy successfully concluded its largest demonstration of shipboard alternative fuel use with the successful arrival of the Self Defense Test Ship (SDTS) to Naval Surface Warfare Center Port Hueneme. More than 50 percent of our fuel goes to maritime use. The SDTS is a decommissioned Spruance-class destroyer ex-Paul F.
A new study by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) estimates heavy fueloil (HFO) use, HFO carriage, the use and carriage of other fuels, black carbon (BC) emissions, and emissions of other air and climate pollutants for the year 2015, with projections to 2020 and 2025.

The results of a new analysis by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) show that, when combined with a trend toward higher methane leakage and combustion slip, there is no climate benefit from using liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a marine fuel—regardless of the engine technology. First, it contains very little sulfur.
This is a key milestone toward commercial scale production, with initial results showing comparable system performance in the scale-up from our 4 barrel/day pilot system in Panama City, Florida to the 100 BBL/day demonstration system in St. The final products are all fungible and nearly identical to petroleum-derived fuels.
fuel for Arctic vessels assuming a low-growth scenario. That study provided estimates of vessel traffic (numbers of vessels and transits) based on modeling of current vessel activity patterns, growth potential, and vessel projection scenarios, including diversion from other routes, and oil and gas development.

Further, a hybrid propulsion system has boosted fuel efficiency by more than 20% compared to the Sayaendo (and more than 40% vis-à-vis earlier carriers). The new structural configuration succeeds in efficiently increasing LNG carrying capacity. New Panamax maximum dimensions are 366m in LOA, 49m in width and 15.2m
a provider of hydrogen fuel cell systems and fueling solutions enabling e-mobility, announced a new agreement with Spanish hydrogen production and distributor Compañía Logística de Hidrocarburos (CLH). The CLH Group is a leading international company in the transport and storage fuel products in Europe. Plug Power Inc.,
Overall, the study found that maritime fuel consumption increased from 291 to 298 million tonnes (+2.4%) from 2013 to 2015, compared to a 7% increase in shipping transport work. Container ships (23%), bulk carriers (19%) and oil tankers (13%) accounted for more than half of CO 2 emissions. Click to enlarge.
Heavy-duty trucks consume about 20% of America’s total transportation fuel. Improving the fuel efficiency of these vehicles can go a long way to reducing dependency on oil and lowering carbon emissions. The application focus for SuperTruck II is Class 8 long‐haul trucks using conventional fuels (diesel or gasoline).
While the Volt holds promise, it is currently projected to be much more expensive than its gasoline-fueled peers and will likely need substantial reductions in manufacturing cost in order to become commercially viable,” the task force noted in its recent assessment of GM’s restructuring plans. — Goodbye 2. — Dan 3. — Nick 6.
Incremental well-to-wheels GHG emissions from WCSB Oil Sands Crudes Compared to Well-to-Wheels GHG Emissions from Displacing Reference Crudes Click to enlarge. Domestic production of crude oil has increased significantly, from approximately 5.5 million bpd in 2010 to 6.5 million bpd in 2012 and 7.5 million bpd by mid-2013. million bpd.
Marine shipping fuels will get cleaner in 2020 when a regulation by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) requires a decrease in the allowable amount of sulfur in fueloil from 3.5% pollution impacts in 2020 with and without the use of low-sulphur fuels. concentrations in 2020 due to low-sulfur fuel standards.
