According to the latest figures from DNV\u2019s Alternative Fuels Insight (AFI) platform, 30 new orders for alternative-fueled vessels were placed in October 2025.<\/p>\n
Of these, 26 were LNG-fueled vessels, all coming from the container segment.<\/p>\n
The remaining four orders were for methanol-fueled vessels, with three of these in the tankers segment.<\/p>\n
A total of 222 orders for alternative-fueled vessels were placed in the first 10 months of 2025, just under half (52%) of orders placed in the same period in 2024. LNG-fueled vessels continue to dominate new orders, accounting for 67% of all alternative-fuel orders this year, with 147 ships. Methanol-fueled vessels follow with 47 orders, while LPG carriers (19), ammonia-fueled vessels (5), and hydrogen-fueled vessels (4) make up the remainder.<\/p>\n
The container segment now accounts for 65% of all new orders for alternative-fueled vessels in 2025.<\/p>\n
Four LNG bunker vessels and two bunker vessels capable of supplying methanol and biofuel were also added to the orderbook in October. Although these are not included in the alternative-fueled vessel statistics, continued investment in bunkering infrastructure is essential for supporting the growth and viability of the emerging alternative-fueled fleet.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
