MMMCZCS: Considerations for retrofitting ships for methanol
The The Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping (MMMCZCS) presents key considerations for retrofitting ships for operation on methanol.
According to MMMCZCS’ “Vessel design considerations for methanol retrofits” report, methanol offers a technically feasible, cost-effective, and manageable transition fuel with fewer technical barriers towards installation and safety challenges compared to other alternative shipping fuels, such as methane or ammonia. While retrofitting to methanol is technically feasible for most vessel types, there are a number of considerations and constraints that need to be accounted for.
