The licence application is open to both existing LNG licensees and new entrants. This call follows the recent updates to the Singapore LNG bunkering licensing framework and standards, which now include the provision of sea-based LNG reloading and the supply of liquefied bio-methane and e-methane in the Port of Singapore. Key Licensing Requirements Licensees are required to implement end-to-end LNG bunkering supply arrangements, which include securing LNG supply, demand planning, cargo transfers operations, storage and safe handling of LNG, as well as the sale, supply and delivery of LNG fuel to vessels in Singapore. Licensees are required to own or charter at least one LNG bunker vessel (LBV) for the entire licence period. The LBV must be registered with the Singapore Registry of Ships and comply with MPA’s Standards for Port Limit LNG Bunker Vessels1. To support international shipping’s decarbonisation efforts, applicants are required to submit a proposal detailing their technical readiness to supply LNG fuels with lower lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions, such as liquefied bio-methane and e-methane. The proposal should also cover intended supply pathways and sourcing arrangements. Applicants are also required to outline measures to monitor and mitigate methane slip from LNG bunker vessels. This should include vessel design features, operational practices, and monitoring or reporting approaches. The measures will be assessed as part of the licence evaluation process.
