Galp公司将在葡萄牙港口供应低硫燃油

Galp公司将提供一种最高含硫量为0.50%的新型船用燃料油，该燃料油符合国际海事组织(IMO) 1月1日起的适用于所有船只的新规则。

随着新的船用燃油推出，Galp将为客户提供新燃油来应对国际船用燃料市场有史以来最彻底的改变，可与20世纪初以燃料取代煤炭作为主流海运能源相比。

这一变化将决定海运货物排放的急剧下降，并有助于改善环境。

这种被称为VLSFO， 含硫为0.50%的新燃料是Galp公司近两年来对160多种不同配方进行测试的成果。从11月15日开始，新燃料将在葡萄牙所有的港口开放。它将只在该公司的Sines和Matosinhos精炼厂生产，并且通过卡车、驳船和管道三种方式运输。

除此，Galp公司还将继续提供各种船用燃料和润滑剂。

Galp to supply cleaner marine fuels at Portuguese ports from this week

Galp will be supplying a new marine fuel oil with a maximum of 0.50% sulphur content that complies with the new International Maritime Organization (IMO) rules applying to all ships from January 1st.

With the new offering, Galp will provide the means for clients to tackle the most sweeping change ever in the international market for marine fuels, comparable only to the replacement of coal by fuel as the mainstream maritime shipping energy source, at the outset of the 20th Century.

This change will determine a sharp decline in maritime cargo-emissions and contribute to a better environment.

The new fuel, known as VLSFO 0.50%S, is the outcome of almost two years of research in which Galp tested more than 160 different formulations. It will be available at all the Portuguese ports starting on November 15th. It will be produced exclusively at the company’s Sines and Matosinhos refineries. VLSFO will supplied by truck, by barge and by pipeline.

Galp will also continue to supply a wide range of marine fuels and lubricants.
