Loo: Eliminating methane slip allows LNG to cut shipping emissions by 25%
“And so if you can eliminate methane slip, the emissions reduction is approximately 25% compared to heavy fuel oil, and so that's a good thing, and it could be a transition fuel. It doesn't get us to zero. It gets us partway there.”
