【Naming Ceremony for new LNG-fuel Car Carrier “CELESTE ACE” !】 We are happy to announce that we held a naming ceremony for the new LNG-fueled Car Carrier “CELESTE ACE” at the dockyard of SHIN KURUSHIMA DOCKYARD, in Ehime, Japan! This is the 6th LNG-fueled Car Carrier under MOL’s operation out of total 14 whose deliveries have already been fixed. LNG can reduce 25% to 30% of CO2 emissions compared to conventional fuel oil, and we are planning to deliver 90 of LNG/Methanol-fueled vessels (*) by 2030. During the ceremony, we were honored to have a special guest Mr. Makoto Uchida, CEO of Nissan Motor Corporation, and MOL's CEO Takeshi Hashimoto had exchanged some memento with each other to celebrate the vessel’s naming and to wish her safe voyage. We have been working closely with #Nissan for almost 60 years. Taking this opportunity, we would like to show our deep appreciation, and we wish to keep going with Nissan through “CELESTE ACE”. (*) It is not limited to Car Carrier but applies to various types of vessels.#MOL #shipping #lng #lngfueled #carcarrier #ghgreductionhttps://lnkd.in/gURDmVzQ https://lnkd.in/g7ctCTqy https://lnkd.in/g67Qbb6C Ship Type: 7,050RT type LNGDF car carrier (high-pressure main engine) Shipyard: Shin Kurushima Dockyard Co., Ltd., Onishi Shipyard LOA: 199.95 m Breadth: 38.00 m Max. capacity: 7,050 units
