Ship-to-ship fueling operation in Long Beach demonstrates scalable, low-carbon marine fuel solution aligned with global climate goals
NORTH VANCOUVER, BC AND HOUSTON, TX, NY / ACCESS Newswire / October 21, 2025 / In another landmark step toward maritime decarbonization, Anew Climate (Anew) and Seaspan Energy (Seaspan) have successfully completed their first ship-to-ship loading operation of renewable liquefied natural gas (Bio-LNG) in the Port of Long Beach, California, marking a pivotal moment in the transition to lower-carbon marine fuels on the North American West Coast.
Following the announcement of a strategic agreement last month to deliver Bio-LNG at scale, the two companies have successfully completed their first bunkering of a commercial container vessel. The renewable natural gas (RNG) used to produce the Bio-LNG was sourced from a Morrow Energy facility. The RNG from this facility has a low certified carbon intensity of 7.74 grams of CO2e per megajoule of energy under the ISCC framework.
This loading operation serves as a critical proof-of-concept for the scalable deployment of Bio-LNG in commercial shipping, demonstrating its immediate potential to decarbonize maritime transport. "This pilot is just the beginning," said Harly Penner, President of Seaspan Energy. "We're proud to collaborate with Anew Climate to forge a new path for lower-carbon marine fuel. Together, we're demonstrating that sustainability and performance can go hand in hand."
The loading builds on Anew Climate's previous milestones in the sector, including the first Bio-LNG fueling of a marine vessel in the U.S. in 2021 and the launch of a carbon-neutral platform supply vessel in 2022.
"We're thrilled to mark this milestone, which highlights Anew's leadership in accelerating the adoption of renewable fuels in the maritime sector," said Andy Brosnan, President of Anew Climate Low Carbon Fuels. "Anew continues to take affirmative steps to expand opportunities for shippers to deploy Bio-LNG across the globe, and together with Seaspan, we're making a real impact by reducing maritime emissions today."
