Hapag-Lloyd’s Colorado Express vessel has been successfully refueled with a B25 marine biofuel blend consisting of ExxonMobil’s premium HDME 50™ fuel, 0.10% Sulfur Emission Control Area (ECA) fuel, and waste biodiesel derived from waste cooking oil.
The direct blend meets the requirements of ISO 8217:2017 except for the fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) component.
The FAME content complies with EN 14214.
The bio-ingredient consists of materials certified to meet the sustainability requirements of RED II: the feedstock does not compete with the land for food production.
