Arbejdet på verdens første metanol-retrofit af containerskib er i gang.

Det første stål er skåret til den omfattende ombygning til dual-fuel metanoldrift af det 14.000 teu store Maersk Halifax på Zhoushan Xinya værftet i Kina.

Den officielle start på den store ombygning blev markeret ved en ceremoni på værftet med deltagelse af repræsentanter fra Maersk og klasseselskabet ABS.

Fabrikationen af dele til ombygningen skal være klar til skibets planlagte ankomst i begyndelsen af juli. Det forventes, at Maersk Halifax skal tilbringe omkring tre måneder på værftet til reparations- og ombygningsarbejdet.

Den nye dual-fuel motor leveres af MAN Energy Solutions, der ifølge selskabets CEO, Uwe Lauber, vil være i stand til at levere motorer til 50 retrofits om året, skriver Seatrade Maritime News.

Maersk indgik kontrakten om verdens første metanol-retrofit med det kinesiske værft i oktober i fjor.
