Against the backdrop of accelerating carbon reduction efforts across the global shipping industry, green ammonia has emerged as a highly promising alternative marine fuel due to its strong zero-carbon potential, with industry interest continuing to grow. However, the industry still faces several significant gaps: dedicated green ammonia bunkering vessels have long been absent from commercial operation, practical vessel conversion cases remain limited, commercial operating experience is scarce, and the overall green ammonia bunkering system is still being explored and improved. The shortage of bunkering infrastructure has become one of the key bottlenecks limiting the large-scale commercial deployment of ammonia-powered vessels. Jiangsu Andefu Energy Development Co., Ltd. remains committed to a capital-intensive investment strategy and is building a full-chain service system centered on asset operations, with the aim of providing global customers with better services and stronger safety management support.

  近日，好消息传来：由江苏安德福能源发展有限公司负责运营的“盛航永乐”轮，正式完成液氨燃料加注功能升级改造，成为全球首艘具备液氨燃料加注功能的营运船舶，并成功取得中国船级社CCS颁发的首张氨燃料加注证书。这标志着“盛航永乐”轮已由传统液氨运输船，进一步升级为“液氨运输+船对船燃料加注”双功能特种船舶，也意味着全球氨燃料加注领域首次拥有可实际投入运营的液氨加注船舶载体。

Recently, the Shenghang Yongle, operated by Jiangsu Andefu Energy Development Co., Ltd., completed its upgrade for liquid ammonia fuel bunkering and became the world’s first operational vessel with such capability. It also successfully obtained the first ammonia fuel bunkering certificate issued by CCS. This marks the transformation of the Shenghang Yongle from a conventional liquid ammonia carrier into a dual-purpose special vessel capable of both liquid ammonia transportation and ship-to-ship fuel bunkering. It also means that, for the first time, the global ammonia bunkering sector now has a liquid ammonia bunkering vessel that can be put into actual operation. 

  在此之前，全球绿氨燃料加注船项目多处于设计、论证、建造或筹备阶段，实际投入营运的液氨燃料加注船舶仍属空白。“盛航永乐”轮此次完成实船升级改造并取得CCS首张加注证书，不仅使其具备开展液氨燃料加注业务的船舶技术基础，也为后续绿氨燃料加注船舶改造、船级检验、现场作业规范及应急处置体系建设积累了宝贵实船经验，为行业后续项目提供可参考、可复制的实践样本。

Before this, most green ammonia bunkering vessel projects worldwide had remained at the design, feasibility study, construction, or preparation stage, while no liquid ammonia bunkering vessel had entered actual operation. By completing this vessel conversion and obtaining CCS’s first bunkering certificate, the Shenghang Yongle has not only gained the technical foundation required to carry out liquid ammonia bunkering operations, but has also accumulated valuable practical experience for future green ammonia bunkering vessel conversions, classification surveys, on-site operating standards, and emergency response systems. The project also provides a practical and replicable reference for similar projects in the future.

  江苏安德福能源发展有限公司在2025年11月14日，签署了全球首份绿氨船对船加注的销售协议，买方为安德福的股东CMB.TECH，这是一份长期的绿氨销售协议，为后续商业化运营奠定了坚实的市场基础。

On November 14, 2025, Jiangsu Andefu Energy Development Co., Ltd. signed the world’s first sales agreement for ship-to-ship green ammonia bunkering, with CMB.TECH, a shareholder of Andefu, as the buyer. The long-term green ammonia sales agreement has laid a solid market foundation for future commercial operations.

行业科普：

Industry Background

  氨分子本身不含碳，在船上燃烧环节原则上不直接产生二氧化碳，因此被广泛视为未来远洋航运的重要零碳燃料路线之一。但氨同时具有毒性，并涉及低温储运、材料兼容、泄漏监测和人员防护等特殊要求，因此船对船液氨燃料加注对船舶罐体、管路系统、紧急切断、泄漏检测、作业程序及应急管理均提出了较高要求。能够完成液氨运输船向液氨燃料加注船的功能升级，并通过船级技术审查与实船检验，意味着船舶整体系统、安全设计及运营体系需要经受更加系统和严格的验证。

Ammonia molecules do not contain carbon. In principle, the combustion of ammonia onboard a vessel does not directly produce carbon dioxide. It is therefore widely regarded as one of the important zero-carbon fuel pathways for future ocean-going shipping. At the same time, ammonia is toxic and involves special requirements for low-temperature storage and transportation, material compatibility, leak detection, and personnel protection. As a result, ship-to-ship liquid ammonia fuel bunkering places high requirements on vessel cargo tanks, piping systems, emergency shutdown systems, leak detection, operating procedures, and emergency management. Successfully upgrading a liquid ammonia carrier into a liquid ammonia bunkering vessel and passing classification technical review and onboard survey means that the vessel’s overall systems, safety design, and operational framework must undergo more systematic and rigorous verification.

  立足国家“双碳”战略，航运脱碳已成为全球行业发展的重要方向。未来，在江苏安德福能源运营管理下，“盛航永乐”轮将持续推进氨燃料加注工艺调试、安全演练及实船加注业务落地，进一步打通绿氨从货源组织、物流运输到海上船对船加注的完整链路，服务未来国内及国际航线氨动力船舶燃料需求，持续推动中国绿氨航运供应链和绿色船用燃料产业高质量发展。

In support of China’s national “dual-carbon” strategy, shipping decarbonization has become an important direction for the development of the global maritime industry. In the future, under the operation and management of Jiangsu Andefu Energy Development Co., Ltd., the Shenghang Yongle will continue to advance ammonia fuel bunkering process commissioning, safety drills, and the implementation of actual vessel bunkering operations. These efforts will further complete the green ammonia chain from cargo sourcing and logistics transportation to ship-to-ship bunkering at sea, serve the future fuel demand of ammonia-powered vessels operating on both domestic and international routes, and continue to promote the high-quality development of China’s green ammonia shipping supply chain and green marine fuel industry.
