UECC and Titan signed new biomethane deal
Ro-roUnited European Car Carriers (UECC) and Titan Clean Fuels (Titan) have signed a new agreement that will see the vast majority of Liquified Gas supplied by Titan to UECC’s multi-fuel ships to have them run on biomethane (LBM/bio-LNG) for the remainder of 2024 and then most of 2025.
This deal expands upon UECC and Titan’s established commitment to using LBM. Since the 1st of July 2024, over 95% of the fuel delivered to UECC’s pure car and truck carriers (PCTCs) by Titan has been LBM; resulting in avoiding more than 30,000 tonnes of green houses gasses emitted.
According to Titan’s analysis, the quantity of LBM in 2025, which Titan and UECC are realistically targeting, will avoid more than 75,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases being emitted. That reduction is equivalent to the annual emissions of around 10,000 EU citizens or 540 million kilometers driven in an average car. Using LBM over oil-based fuels also virtually eliminates harmful local emissions Black Soot and other Particular Matters (PM), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Sulphur Oxides (SOx).
This announcement follows news that UECC has invested in two new multi-fuel car carriers to be delivered in 2028, with the option to add two more. This move, combined with the latest biomethane agreement with Titan, has built a strong foundation for UECC’s long-term commitment to the LNG pathway and transition to biomethane.
