Skangas bunkered LNG-powered Tallink’s Megastar at Helsinki’s West Harbour – Cleaner energy for the Baltic Sea

Tallink’s new LNG-powered fast ferry Megastar was bunkered at Helsinki’s West Harbour on January 25, 2017. Megastar will start operating on the Helsinki-Tallinn route this weekend, powered by the cleanest marine fuel – liquefied natural gas (LNG).

Megastar was bunkered by Skangas from a road tanker at Helsinki’s West Harbour. The ferry’s test bunkering took place at the Skangas Pori terminal in early January. Skangas delivers LNG flexibly from the LNG import terminal opened in the autumn at Tahkoluoto, Pori, for maritime transport needs to ports along the coast. Megastar will continue to use the West Harbour as its regular bunkering site.
