LNG for Road
Used in trucks delivering goods, LNG has the potential to offer fuel cost savings when compared to conventional diesel. It can also reduce sulphur emissions, particulates and nitrogen oxides, and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions from production to use.
Burning LNG in spark-ignited engines is quieter than burning diesel in combustion engines. It means LNG-fuelled trucks can operate longer under noise restrictions, for example when delivering to supermarkets in residential areas.
Shell has also developed engine oils to meet the specific operating conditions of trucks and buses that run on natural gas. Shell Rimula R5 NG and Shell Rimula R3 NG effectively lubricate and clean the engine by promoting thermal stability and detergency control, keeping engines well-oiled for their best performance.
Since October 2015, Shell has access to import and storage capacity in the Gas Access to Europe Terminal (Gate) at the port of Rotterdam, the Netherlands. This enables us to supply our own LNG to marine and road customers in northwest Europe, as well as LNG fuel for our truck-refuelling network in the Netherlands and Belgium. Shell will also be the first customer at a new “break-bulk” LNG terminal being built by Gate at the port.
In December 2017, RedStar – a joint venture between Shell and Shaanxi Yanchang Group Company – opened an LNG retail station in northwest China. China is the largest LNG for transport market in the world, with more than 200,000 heavy-duty trucks and buses using LNG.
We are also working with OEMs to further develop LNG as a fuel for heavy-duty truck operators.
