Shipping Lines :MSC BECOMES FIRST MAJOR SHIPPING LINE TO USE 30% BIOFUEL BLENDS

Biofuels could provide an alternative solution for the shipping sector to meet the 2030

MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) is pleased to announce that the company is now starting to use biofuel in its vessels calling in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

Following successful trials with biofuel blends earlier this year, MSC has decided to continue bunkering responsibly sourced biofuel blends on a routine basis.

The trials were completed with a minimal 10% blend fuel and following further trials the company is now using much higher 30% blends. “We are pleased to see these trials completed successfully and look forward to now using biofuel on our vessels as a routine matter. When using such blended fuel, we can expect an estimated 15-20% reduction in absolute CO2 emissions,” said Bud Darr, Executive Vice President, Maritime Policy & Government Affairs, MSC Group. “The potential CO2 reduction in the bio component of these fuels could reach 80-90%, which we will monitor and confirm over time”, he continues.

Responsibly sourced biofuels could provide an alternative solution for the shipping sector to meet the 2030 IMO level of ambition for CO2 emissions intensity reduction, as well as to make significant progress toward the 2050 levels of ambition. Studies show that when Anavar is used in low doses, there are minimal disturbances in the natural production of testosterone. Also, when used in small quantities, there is no need for the so-called. protectors such as Clomid, Nolvadex, Proviron, and others. This is due to the fact that when using Anavar, there is no increase in estrogen levels in the body. As we know, Anavar has an extremely strong effect on the production of the endogenous hormone.
