Image Credit: Navios Partners Navios Maritime Partners has taken delivery of a container ship suitable for conversion to methanol or LNG propulsion in the future. The 7,900 TEU vessel, Navios Turquoise , is the second vessel of the four-vessel series, the company said in a LinkedIn post on Friday . “The vessel continues Navios Partners’ strategy of investing in environmentally friendly vessels, incorporating Alternative Maritime Power and state-of-the-art equipment to reduce emissions and take advantage of the latest technological developments,” the company said. The vessel is also equipped with scrubber systems. Several shipowners have ordered methanol- or alternative-fuel-ready vessels in recent years as they weigh up which alternative fuels are likely to gain wider adoption. The approach allows owners to initially operate ships on conventional fuels while retaining the option to convert them to alternative-fuel propulsion at a later stage. However, while a growing number of methanol-ready vessels have entered service, relatively few have subsequently been converted to methanol propulsion.
