Three of the fueling facilities in operation are public and located in the municipalities of Tilburg, Oss and Zwolle. At this last mentioned point, LNG24, which is a Ballast Nedam subsidiary, organized a few weeks ago a three day event in collaboration with Iveco Nederland, Scania Nederland and Volvo Trucks to promote liquefied natural gas transportation.

There will be seven Cryobox® units, developed and patented by Galileo, to feed with LNG the tanks of the “López Mena”, the world´s first high speed passenger RO-RO ship, which will daily cross the Río de la Plata between Argentina and Uruguay. It will also be the first time that a sea transportation company, such as Buquebus, becomes its own self supplier of a fuel.

The distribution division of the world’s third largest grocery retailer, Tesco, has committed a fleet of 35 heavy duty vehicles. The trucks will fuel at Gasrec’s station at Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal: a ground-breaking installation that will officially open to all dual-fuel vehicles in May. Bio-LNG is Gasrec’s proprietary, future-proof blend of LNG and liquid biomethane.

GE Oil & Gas has unveiled this small-scale, plug-and-play, re-deployable LNG system based on proven technology that can help accelerate the use of natural gas as a cost-effective, cleaner vehicle fuel. It offers customers a standardized, modular fueling system covering an LNG production range of 10,000 – 50,000 gallons a day (16-18 tons/day) and, as a small-scale solution, it may encourage the transition of long-haul trucks from diesel fuel to natural gas.
