Stabilis Solutions, Inc., recently completed the first bunkering of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) for Pasha Hawaii’s (“Pasha”) newest container ship MV George III in Long Beach, CA.

In partnership with West Coast Clean Fuels, LLC (“WCCF”), Stabilis provided project development, management, engineering, technical and operational services.

“Pasha’s leadership in lowering shipping emissions on West Coast shipping routes is a significant step toward the improvement of the air quality in the region,” commented Westy Ballard, President & CEO of Stabilis, “and we are delighted to have partnered with WCCF to play a part.”

Ballard further commented, “The Port of Long Beach is an important international trading hub for the U.S., and we look forward to working diligently with the Port and our customers to further advance the lowering of emissions in ocean shipping.”

Pasha Hawaii’s MV George III is a 774-foot container ship operating between Long Beach, CA, Honolulu, HI, and Oakland CA and is currently scheduled to bunker every second week at the Port of Long Beach. The vessel is the first of three LNG-powered ships that Pasha is putting into service with the second, the Janet Marie, expected in late 2022 and the third expected to be deployed in mid-2023.
