GAC Bunker Fuels has opened a new office in Westport, US, as part of its commitment to global customers seeking ways to decarbonise in US ports and beyond.
The office will be manned by LNG, biofuel, LSFO and MGO experts Maurice Lara and John Lindquist, and will be carbon neutral given GAC Bunker Fuels’ blue carbon projects around the GAC world.
GAC Bunker Fuels has pledged zero oil-based bunker sales by 1 January 2030. On 1 September 2020, it delivered the first marine LNG for a foreign-flagged vessel in the US and is working with energy utility company Puget Sound Energy to establish LNG bunkering along the US West Coast.
Lara said: “We want to help our customers decarbonise by offering alternative fuel and are uniquely positioned to do so due to our many established customer and supplier relationships. We are looking for biofuel specialists to join our expanding team to meet their growing needs.”
Joining the new Westport office are members from GAC North America’s team, who in partnership with GAC Bunker Fuels, are promoting their range of shipping services to customers in the Tri-State area with a specific focus on servicing the growing Offshore Wind sector along the Eastern Seaboard.
