Recognizing the importance of LNG as a cleaner marine fuel, Conrad Shipyard launched Conrad LNG, a dedicated business unit for LNG-related projects. Conrad LNG is actively involved in developing LNG as a marine fuel, with a focus on designing transport and bunker vessels, dual-fuel towboats, and other R&D initiatives.
In August 2018, Conrad Shipyard achieved a significant milestone by delivering the first LNG Bunker Barge in North America from its Orange, Texas shipyard. Vessels powered by LNG not only meet current emissions standards but also offer a compelling long-term economic advantage for Owners and Operators.
