Ammonia-Fueled Vブラックジャック 強いカードsel was Completed
- World’s First Commercial-Use Ammonia-Fueled -
On August 23, the ammonia-fueled tugboat Sakigake was completed by NYK Line (NYK) and ブラックジャック 強いカードI Corporation consolidated subsidiary ブラックジャック 強いカードI Power Systems Co., Ltd. (ブラックジャック 強いカードI Power Systems) in cooperation with Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK). This is the world's first ammonia-fueled vessel for commercial use.* The NYK Group company Shin-Nippon Kaiyosha will employ the vessel in tugboat operations in Tokyo Bay over a three-month demonstration period.
This vessel was a Green Innovation Fund Project* initiated in October 2021 under Japan’s New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) to develop vessels equipped with domestically produced 280mm bore four-stroke ammonia-fueled engines made by ブラックジャック 強いカードI Power Systems.
The predecessor, the LNG-fueled tugboat of the same name, was completed in August 2015 as the first LNG-fueled vessel in Japan. After eight years of tug service in Tokyo Bay, the vessel was docked at the NYK Group's Keブラックジャック 強いカードin Dock Co. Ltd. for conversion to an ammonia-fueled vessel. The main engine, etc., were replaced with ammonia-fueled ones, and sea trials were conducted using ammonia as fuel. The completed vessel has taken the name Sakigake, hoping it will be a pioneer of ammonia-fueled vessels, just as it was of LNG-fueled vessels.
As part of the development of vessels equipped with domestically produced ammonia-fueled engines through NEDO’s Green Innovation Fund Project, NYK, ブラックジャック 強いカードI Power Systems, Japan Engine Corporation, Nブラックジャック 強いカードon Shipyard Co., Ltd., and ClassNK are conducting research and development on ammonia-fueled medium gas carrier (AFMGC). This vessel is scheduled for delivery in November 2026. ブラックジャック 強いカードI Power Systems will be made to develop a 250 mm bore four-stroke engine for the auxiliary engine of this vessel.
* The “world’s first” claim is as of August 23, 2024, accordブラックジャック 強いカードg to research by NYK.
