        总部位于阿拉伯联合酋长国（the United Arab Emirates，简称UAE）的海运物流公司Tristar Group与土耳其（Türkiye）造船厂Akdeniz Shipyard签署协议，即为阿联酋（UAE）建造一艘混合动力燃料补给船。

        该船计划于2025年第一季度投入使用，并停靠在富查伊拉港（Port of Fujairah）。该港口是阿联酋（UAE）东海岸唯一处的多功能海事设施，也是该地区主要的锚地和加油枢纽。

        这艘容量750立方米的注油船设计能够装备柴油发电机，将其作为船舶电力燃料的备用动力能源。这艘燃料补给船未安装传统的排烟装置，因而甲板上剩余空间便可放置大型船载电池。据该公司称，发电机运行时，船舶会在水下排放烟气，以此减少向大气排放温室气体。

        特别是与使用传统柴油推进系统的船舶相比，这艘驳船的创新设计和动力系统将大大降低碳排放量。若其运营计划周密，预计能够减少50%以上的碳排放量。

        Tristar集团首席执行官Eugene Mayne在迪拜（Dubai）与Akdeniz造船厂主Metin Akbasoglu签署合同时表示：“处在一种我们多年来熟悉并富有成效的环境中，我们正在创造开拓绿色技术的新机遇。”

        Mayne补充道：“作为全球海运业的重要参与者，为实现去碳化，Tristar应自愿履行义务迈出能力所及可行的第一步。”

        他还说：“港口基础设施不断向着支持使用电动驳船进行沿海作业的方向发展。我们相信，这一大胆举措将鼓励当地海运业进行效仿。”

        位于阿达纳（Adana）的 Akdeniz船厂将负责这艘混合动力燃料驳船的建造。就其面积和容量而言，该船厂是土耳其（Turkey）乃至整个东地中海（Eastern Mediterranean）地区最大的船厂。

        该船建成后将为停靠在富查伊拉港（Fujairah Port）附近锚地的船只供应补给物资。

Tristar orders hybrid electric bunkering vessel in Türkiye

The United Arab Emirates-based maritime and logistics company Tristar Group has signed an agreement with Türkiye’s Akdeniz Shipyard for the construction of a hybrid bunker barge for the UAE.

Scheduled to be commissioned in the first quarter of 2025, the vessel will be positioned at the Port of Fujairah, the only multi-purpose maritime facility on the east coast of the country and the major anchorage and bunkering hub in the region. 

The 750-cubic meter bunkering vessel is designed to house diesel generators as a backup to electric power. The barge will not have a conventional funnel and the deck space saved will house the sizeable onboard battery. Generators, if run, will discharge flue gases under water so that GHG emissions into the atmosphere are reduced, according to the company.

This innovative design and the vessel’s powertrain are expected to lower carbon emissions significantly, especially when compared to conventional diesel propulsion. With well-planned operations, it is expected that carbon emissions will be reduced by more than 50 percent.

“We are creating another opportunity to pioneer green technology in an environment that has been familiar and fruitful for us, for many years,” Tristar Group CEO, Eugene Mayne, said during a contract signing in Dubai with Metin Akbasoglu, the owner of Akdeniz Shipyard. 

“As a prominent player in the global maritime sector, it is obligatory for Tristar to be willing and able to take the first steps towards any feasible decarbonisation, and create sectoral change,” Mayne added. 

“As port infrastructure continues to develop in support of using electric barges for coastal operations, we are optimistic this bold move will encourage the local maritime industry to follow suit.” 

The hybrid bunker barge will be built at the Akdeniz Shipyard in Adana, the largest shipyard in Turkey and the wider Eastern Mediterranean, in terms of area and capacity. 

The vessel will provide stores and supplies to vessels stopping at anchorage off Fujairah Port.
