A poll reveals LNG is the current future fuel favoured for 2035 (source: LinkedIn)
A reposting of one of the RMM webinar polls reveals LNG is expected to be the favoured fuel in 2035
In the Riviera Maritime Media webinar, A new era of marine fuels: what it means for engines, ship management and lubrication, delegates were asked, “By 2035, industry will mostly favour the following fuel…”
This question was reported on LinkedIn and drew the following results: LNG 41%; methanol 28%; /hydrogen 19%; biofuel 13%.
According to these results, among the shipping industry, LNG is expected to become the fuel of choice by 2035. This may not come as too much of a surprise, given LNG is currently one of the favoured transition fuels for newbuildings.
The shock result was the strong showing of methanol, which is only just beginning to become a prominent transition fuel and for which there is clearly a growing awareness among the industry.
The aim now is to repeat this poll every quarter and post the results.
