X-Press Feeders names and puts into operation first dual-fuel container ship

Eco Maestro, the first dual-fuel container vessel to sail on methanol, was christened in Rotterdam port, the home port to all 14 methanol vessels of X-Press Feeders.

Singapore-based container carrier X-press Feeders aims to have these “green vessels” sail mainly on routes in Europe, which means there will be the first network of feeders sailing on green methanol in the continent.

Evergreen Feeders has signed a contract with X-Press Feeders regarding this green European network, which consists of two liner services for now.

The Green Finland X-Press (GFX) sails from Rotterdam to Antwerp, Helsinki (Finland), Tallinn (Estonia) and HaminaKotka (Finland), while the Green Baltic X-Press sails to KlaipÄ—da (Lithuania) and Riga (Latvia) as well as Rotterdam and Antwerp.
