Moller &#8211; Maersk<\/strong>, consolidating the operational expansion of vessels with sustainable technologies outside Japan.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consolidation of an international green building network<\/h2>\n\n<p>This achievement represents the group&#8217;s third delivery of a vessel with this type of technology in less than a year. Following the delivery of an Ultramax <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/rina-approves-design-of-lng-and-hydrogen-powered-ultramax-bulk-carrier\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"264426\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ultramax bulk carrier<\/a><\/strong> in Japan and the first methanol KAMSARMAX in the Philippines, the milestone in China confirms the group&#8217;s ability to replicate its expertise in different shipyards while maintaining design and efficiency standards. <\/p>\n\n<p>The delivery to Maersk occurs in parallel to the expansion of its fleet of alternative fuel-powered vessels. With 20 dual-fuel containerships already in operation, the Danish company is advancing in its energy transition, diversifying its propulsion mix and strengthening its decarbonization strategy. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Continuous production beyond borders<\/h2>\n\n<p>For TSUNEISHI SHIPBUILDING, this delivery demonstrates that its global production system enables it to replicate <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/articulo\/reduction-emissions-petroleum-refining\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"articulo\" data-id=\"108910\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">low-emission solutions<\/a><\/strong> in different countries, adapting local capabilities to a shared vision. With shipyards in Japan, China and the Philippines, the company consolidates a construction model aligned with the environmental objectives of international shipping. <\/p>\n\n<p>The company has confirmed that it will continue with the expansion of methanol-powered vessels in several product lines. This evolution will be developed under a framework of coordination between its plants, optimizing technical and logistical processes at its three key sites. Energy transition in shipping is no longer a future concept: it is an ongoing production system.  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tsuneishi.co.jp\/english\/news\/p3119\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.tsuneishi.co.jp\/english\/news\/p3119\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TSUNEISHI SHIPBUILDING<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSUNEISHI shipyard in China completes delivery of methanol ship, replicating sustainable production outside Japan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9014,"featured_media":337228,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13026,13048],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-337262","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-energy","categoria_noticias-maritime"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/337262","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9014"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=337262"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/337262\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/337228"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=337262"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=337262"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=337262"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
