Methanex of Canada and Japanese shipping firm Mitsui O.S.K Lines (MOL) have completed a net-zero voyage using bio-methanol as fuel for the tanker Cajun Sun. According to the companies, the voyage was the first of its kind and will help assess the viability of using methanol as a marine fuel to attain net-zero emissions. "As the world's largest methanol producer, we are establishing a network of relationships with leading renewable natural gas suppliers and assessing other pathways, including carbon capture and storage and e-methanol, to provide solutions for the marine industry and other customers," says Mark Allard, Methanex senior vice-president for low carbon solutions.
