Japanese trio to merge container lines

NYK Line and the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) to study the long-term effects of continuous biofuel usage on vessel operations.

NYK Line is transforming well-worn vehicle lashing belts previously used on its operated car carriers into solid fuel.

This research aims to develop a fire detection system that detects fires earlier and with higher accuracy than existing smoke detectors for vessels.

Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd (K Line), which is one of Japan’s largest shipping groups, believes the use of sails on commercial vessels has an important role to play in helping decarbonise the global shipping industry.

Japan Suiso Energy and three Japanese shipping companies, K Line, MOL and NYK have established JSE Ocean to develop and implement supply of green LH2 to the country

Three companies have signed a MoU to expand Kobe International Container Terminal.
