LNG reduces shipping emissions by up to 21%: study

An independent study report launched 11 April revealed that greenhouse gas reductions of up to 21% are achievable now from liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a marine fuel, compared with current oil-based marine fuels over the entire life-cycle from Well-to-Wake.
