日本航运巨头川崎汽船株式会社(K Line)已接收“Tethys Highway”号。这是一艘由新来岛丰桥造船建造的、以液化天然气(LNG)为动力的6900车位汽车运输船。
该新船的命名和交付仪式于2025年7月18日举行。
这艘总吨位75,259吨的船舶,长199.96米,宽38米。
由于该船主要使用LNG作为燃料,与使用重油的传统船舶相比,预计可减少温室气体二氧化碳(CO2)排放25%至30%,并几乎100%减少导致空气污染的硫氧化物(SOx)排放。
“Tethys Highway”号是过去几个月内交付给K Line的几艘LNG动力新船之一。
相关新闻方面,作为其拥抱可再生燃料并实现2050年温室气体(GHG)净零排放更广泛战略的一部分,K Line近期已开始使用生物液化天然气(bio-LNG)为其船舶提供动力。
2025年6月16日,汽车运输船“Oceanus Highway”号在比利时泽布吕赫港从壳牌公司接收了500吨生物液化天然气。
K Line表示,根据其2050年环保愿景,公司将继续致力于引入对环境影响较低的新型燃料,并努力实现其设定的目标。

Japanese shipping major Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha (K Line) has taken delivery of Tethys Highway, a 6,900 CEU liquefied natural gas (LNG)-powered car carrier built at Shin Kurushima Toyohashi Shipbuilding.
The naming and delivery ceremony for the newbuild was held on July 18, 2025.
The 75,259-gross-ton unit features a length of 199.96 meters and a beam of 38 meters.
As the vessel is mainly fueled by LNG, using this fuel is expected to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas (GHG), by 25% to 30% and emissions of sulfur oxides (SOx), which cause air pollution, by almost 100% in comparison with conventional vessels using heavy fuel oil.
Tethys Highway is one of several LNG-powered newbuilds handed over to K Line in the past few months.
In related news, K Line recently began using bio-LNG to power its ships as part of a wider strategy to embrace renewable fuels and achieve net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050.
On June 16, 2025, car carrier Oceanus Highway received 500 tons of bio-LNG from Shell at the Belgian Port of Zeebrugge.
In line with its 2050 environmental vision, K Line said it will continue to work on the introduction of new fuels that have a low environmental impact and take on the challenge of achieving the targets it has established.
