NYK takes delivery of new coal carrier Kagura

Capt. John

Nippon Yusen Kaisha (NYK) Line has taken delivery of a new coal carrier, dubbed Kagura, from Oshima Shipbuilding.

As part of a long-term transport contract with Chugoku Electric Power (EnerGia), carbon offsets will be used by the new ship to lower its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to theoretically zero for the complete contracted voyage.

To minimise GHG emissions, the ship has procured certified emission reductions (CERs) as credits (emission rights) for the complete contract voyage.
