DUBAI, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Qatar Petroleum and
Shell agreed on Wednesday to establish a partnership to
accelerate the development of liquified natural gas (LNG)
fuelling infrastructure around the world.
"The joint venture between the two companies will invest in
LNG marine fuelling, bunkering vessels and other infrastructure
in key locations to meet the needs of marine customers and help
to reduce emissions of the global shipping industry," a Shell
statement said.
"These locations will leverage existing Qatar Petroleum and
Shell supply positions and complement current Shell marine LNG
bunkering locations in Europe, Asia and North America."
