The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) is planning to begin trials for sea-based LNG refuelling in the second half of 2025.
MPA had earlier issued an Expression of Interest (EOI) to explore ways to scale up LNG supply in the Port of Singapore.

These cleaner fuels are being considered to give international vessel operators more sustainable energy choices as part of their decarbonisation journey.
MPA stated that it will collaborate with shortlisted companies to carry out the sea-based LNG reloading trials.
These trials will assess several factors, including the scalability of operations, technical workability, safety standards,
