We are pleased to announce our plans to further expand and renew our fleet with six new vessels, and the option to build an additional four, set to be agreed later this year. The 7,700 DWT IMO II Chemical Tankers will be sister ships to the four vessels announced previously, and are also being constructed in the Jiangmen Hangtong shipyard in China. “The order of these new vessels marks another important milestone for HTM as we continue expanding and renewing our fleet, closely aligned with the needs of both HTM’s and Peninsula’s customer base. We remain committed to the supply of conventional fuels, but our new assets will achieve this with lower emissions. Equally we anticipate an evolving alternative fuels market, in which we will play a leading role with specialist supply assets”, said John A. Bassadone. #energymatters

We’re excited to announce that Nacho de Miguel, Head of Alternative Fuels and Sustainability, will join industry leaders to tackle the big questions at the LNG Shipping & Terminals Conference 2024: Is retrofitting steam turbine vessels cost-effective, or should companies invest in newbuilds? How will tightening environmental regulations affect charter rates? And what immediate strategies can reduce GHG emissions?   As we look towards 2030, this session will also explore the potential of alternative fuels and CO2 shipping. Join the conversation and share your thoughts below!    #energyflowing #shipping #sustainability 

For the last few days, our colleagues have been in Athens supporting IBIA's Annual Convention 2024. This is a key event in the bunkering industry calendar and this year's has been as insightful as ever. Conversations have centered around the latest sector trends, upcoming regulatory changes, and what the future of bunkering could look like. Our COO Kenny MacLean and Head of Global Operations Jeroen de Vos both took part in panel discussions focusing on a range of issues including new fuel specifications, the growing demand for transparency and traceability, and adapting to future fuels. As well as being platinum sponsor of the Conference, we also hosted our own customer biofuels event where our subject matter experts discussed the ISO 8217-2024 updates and embracing biofuel. The convention has provided a fantastic opportunity to engage with our peers and we'd like to thank everyone who came along to our event or who joined the panel discussions.  #IBIA2024 #bunkering #biofuels 

We are looking forward to attending Eisbeinessen' Hamburg Shipbrokers Dinner this week! Since 1948, the annual Eisbeinessen has been the networking highlight of the international shipping industry, where industry professionals from around the world meet to make new contacts. If you will be there, we would love to connect with you. See you soon! #energyflowing #internationalshipping #shipbrokers

Our recent event in #LasPalmas was a fantastic opportunity to bring together local players, including shipping agents, port authorities, and various partners. It allowed everyone to connect, share ideas, and build trust, strengthening our working relationships. For our operations team, the event was invaluable. Meeting colleagues in person, rather than just through emails and calls, fostered personal connections. Seeing the port firsthand was a significant advantage. Understanding the layout and operations of Las Palmas up close provided a deeper understanding that will enhance our team’s efficiency in their daily tasks. Overall, the event was a success for everyone involved. It laid the foundation for strong partnerships, making our operations more responsive and efficient, and demonstrated our commitment to making Las Palmas a standout location in the maritime world. #EnergyFlowing #Maritime #Port
