JACKSONVILLE, Florida – Crowley and Shell Trading (US) Company have entered into a memorandum of understanding with the aim of supporting alternative energy solutions for the future of shoreside and terminal operations.
The MOU follows an ongoing joint project that was previously initiated between the companies to provide lower-carbon fuel solutions by designing, building and operating the nation’s largest LNG bunker barge on the US East Coast.
Subject to future agreements, Shell will look to support Crowley’s development of lower-emissions solutions for a shoreside charging station at the Port of San Diego, where Crowley’s eWolf, the first all-electric US ship assist tug, will begin service in 2023.
