Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates: 5 August 2024: Emirates Global Aluminium, the largest ‘premium aluminium’ producer in the world, today announced the world’s first bauxite cargo shipment using a Liquefied Natural Gas-fuelled vessel.

The shipment, in a Capesize ship, is carrying bauxite mined by EGA subsidiary Guinea Alumina Corporation to a customer in China.

LNG-fuelled ships can achieve up to 28 per cent lower greenhouse gas emissions on a tank-to-wake basis compared to vessels using traditional marine bunker fuel, according to SEA-LNG, a multi-sector industry coalition. The global shipping industry as a whole was responsible for over two per cent of the word’s greenhouse gas emissions in 2022, according to the International Energy Agency.
