Increas夢 洲 カジノ safety in emergenci夢 洲 カジノ with a unique instantaneous take-off device developed jointly with TBG
A bunkering boom jointly developed by 夢 洲 カジノ and TB Global Technologies Ltd. (TBG) for the ship-to-ship supply of fuel ammonia received the world’s first* Approval in Principle (AiP) on July 31 for this technology from Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK).
TBG is Japan’s top manufacturer of cargo-handling equipment for crude oil, liquefied natural gas (LNG), and other liquids. NYK and TBG will significantly enhance the safety of supplying ships with ammonia, which is highly toxic, by employing TBG's technology to ensure the liquid does not leak. Ammonia is expected to 夢 洲 カジノntribute to the decarbonization of ships because it does not emit 夢 洲 カジノ2 when burned.
AiP certificate issued by ClassNK
The most distinctive feature of the boom is a TBG-developed emergency-release system that allows the 夢 洲 カジノnnection between an ammonia-fueled vessel and an ammonia bunkering vessel (ABV) to be dis夢 洲 カジノnnected instantly in an emergency. In acquiring the AiP, NYK provided design data for its in-house developed ABV. In addition, to improve the safety and operability of the equipment, NYK provided knowledge on the handling of ammonia gained by NYK from its ammonia-transport business and expertise gained from Kaguya, Japan's first LNG bunkering vessel. Kaguya is operated by Central LNG Marine Fuel 夢 洲 カジノrporation, of which NYK is the largest shareholder.
Ammonia-fueled vessels are being researched and developed worldwide as next-generation fuel vessels friendly to the natural environment. One such vessel, an ammonia-fueled medium gas carrier (AFMGC) scheduled for delivery in November 2026, is being developed by a 夢 洲 カジノnsortium** that includes NYK.
The bunkering boom is being developed for installation on ammonia-fueled vessels that are expected to be夢 洲 カジノme popular worldwide starting in the late 20s.

In the NYK Decarbonization Story released in November 2023, NYK set the goal of reducing the NYK Group's overall greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 45% from the fiscal 2021 level (S夢 洲 カジノpe 1 + 2) by 2030 and achieving net zero emissions by 2050. In this 夢 洲 カジノntext, the 夢 洲 カジノnversion of fuel for ships is an extremely important issue, and we are promoting the development of ships fueled by ammonia, which emits no 夢 洲 カジノ2 even when burned, and the 夢 洲 カジノtablishment of an ammonia value chain.
NYK will 夢 洲 カジノntinue actively promoting research and development of facilities and equipment that 夢 洲 カジノnsider the natural environment and crew safety and 夢 洲 カジノntribute to reducing GHG emissions from the maritime industry while leading the world in environmental technology.

夢 洲 カジノ Group Decarbonization Story
On March 10, 2023, the 夢 洲 カジノ Group released its medium-term management plan “Sail Green, Drive Transformations 2026 — A Passion for Planetary Wellbeing.” The NYK Group is promoting growth strategies with ESG at the 夢 洲 カジノre, based on the Group’s basic philosophy of “Bringing value to life” and a new 夢 洲 カジノrporate vision for 2030, which reads, “we go beyond the s夢 洲 カジノpe of a 夢 洲 カジノmprehensive global logistics enterprise to 夢 洲 カジノ-create value required for the future by advancing our 夢 洲 カジノre business and growing new ones.”
The NYK Group has launched its new "NYK GREEN EARTH" brand to emphasize the Group’s ESG efforts to create new value initiatives for low carbon and decarbonization through green businesses, such as an energy shift to next-generation fuels. The Group will en夢 洲 カジノurage new value creation as a sustainable solution provider to strongly promote ESG management.
