Chongqing’s First LNG Filling Station on the Yangtze Starts Operation

Chongqing Fujiang Energy Technology Company (Fujiang Energy), a subsidiary of Fortune Oil, is going to start the operation of the first LNG filling station on the Yangtze River in August this year.

The LNG filling station has a storage volume of 2,000 cu m and is capable of filling 20 vessels every day.
Fujiang Energy converted its first LNG/diesel duel fuel vessel last year and this year and the company plans to expand its business of LNG vessel conversion and LNG filling. Luo Cihua, general manager of Fujiang Energy said that the company will initially convert LNG vessels for large shipping companies for free, and share the percentage of the energy cost saved by the shipping companies to ease the financial burden on them.

Luo revealed that the company has another four to five LNG filling stations in the planning near Wuhan, Nanjing and Shanghai.
