Maersk has signed and taken delivery of the world’s first methanol-fuelled container vessel, built at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard in South Korea.
The vessel is now preparing to embark on its maiden voyage towards Copenhagen with fuel provided by OCI Global.
The ship is scheduled to arrive in the Danish capital in September where Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, will be on hand to become the godmother of the high profile ship.
