Babcock’s LGE business has been awarded a contract to supply its ecoFGSS-FLEX marine ammonia fuel supply system for four new medium gas carriers being built for commodity trading company Trafigura at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD).

According to Babcock, this new technology is compatible with existing ship systems and has been developed to comply with established safety and environmental standards. It reportedly enables the use of ammonia as a propulsion fuel, with a focus on safety, efficiency, and sustainability.
