Moller - Maersk container line vessel. This embarks the first B24 biofuel supply in Hong Kong for container line vessels, as well as the first one with more than 2000 metric tonnes, setting a new standard in the region’s commitment to environmental sustainability. This pioneering move further steered CPN’s leadership in Hong Kong market with its adoption of cleaner, more sustainable alternative fuel within the maritime industry.
