Crowley Commits to LNG
Crowley Maritime Corporation
maintained its commitment to sustainability when it set the main engine onto
El Coquí, the first of two new Commitment Class combination container and
RO/RO ships that will be powered by
liquefied natural gas. The vessels will
sail between Jacksonville and Puerto
Rico.
Liquefied natural gas is a stable
gas that is neither toxic nor corrosive
and is lighter than air, according to the
company. It is the cleanest fossil fuel
available, netting a 100-percent reduction in sulphur oxide and particulate
matter, and a 92-percent reduction in
nitrogen oxide. LNG also has the ability
to significantly reduce carbon dioxide, a
contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, as compared with conventional
fossil fuels.
These Commitment Class, Jones Act
ships are designed to travel at speeds
up to 22 knots while maximizing the
carriage of 53-foot, 102-inch-wide
containers. Cargo capacity will be approximately 2,400 TEUs, with additional
space for nearly 400 vehicles in an
enclosed RO/RO garage.
