IINO Kaiun Kaisha, Ltd. (IINO Lines) has announced plans to construct Japan’s first large methanol dual-fuel crude oil tanker at Nihon Shipyard Co., Ltd. (NSY). The vessel, a pioneering development in Japan’s maritime industry, is expected to be completed in 2027 and will be allocated for a charter contract with Idemitsu Tanker Co., Ltd., marking a significant advancement in environmentally sustainable shipping.
The design of the tanker has been formulated by a four-company consortium, including IINO Lines, Idemitsu Tanker, Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (NYK Line), and NSY. This collaboration underscores the maritime industry's collective effort toward decarbonization.
The vessel will be equipped with dual-fuel technology, enabling it to use both methanol and conventional fuel oil. Additionally, it will feature a shaft generator that harnesses the rotation of the main propeller shaft to generate electricity. This innovation is expected to significantly reduce emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂), sulfur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter (PM), making it a critical step towards lowering environmental impact.
