Fuelling Maritime Shipping with Liquefied Natural Gas
The Case of Japan
The use of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) as a ship fuel is expected to increase significantly from its current marginal share in the coming years.

This study assesses the factors that will influence the realisation of that ambition.
