Fincantieri Bay Shipbuilding in Sturgeon Bay announced the recent delivery of the largest ever built LNG bunkering barge recently to Polaris New Energy. Clean Canaveral”, a 340-foot vessel, was delivered last Friday and offers 12,000 m3 (3.17 million gallons) of Liquid Natural Gas capacity. LNG is a process through which natural gas is cooled to a liquid state and reduced by nearly 600 percent. That process makes it easier and safer to transport. Fincantieri Bay Shipbuilding is on contract to build a sister 5,500 cubic meter ATB for Northstar and Polaris, in addition to other new construction and steady repair work on the Great Lakes’ winter fleet. Polaris New Energy is a U.S.-based maritime logistics firm.
