Netherlands-based sustainable marine fuels specialist GoodFuels has completed the biofuel bunkering of a Korean flagged Pure Car and Truck Carrier (PCTC) vessel, marking the first project of its kind.
Undertaken alongside Hyundai GLOVIS, the project saw vehicle carrier GLOVIS SUNRISE refuelled with 500 metric tonnes of GoodFuels’ sustainable biofuel blend MDF1-30 during a port visit to Vlissingen (Flushing), in the Netherlands, on 28th December 2022.
