Eight of these were for vessels in the car carrier segment, six for container vessels, four for crude oil tankers, and two for cruise vessels.<\/p>\n<p>A further 14 orders were placed for LPG\/ethane carriers.<\/p>\n<p>The remaining four orders were for ammonia-fueled vessels in the bulk carrier segment.<\/p>\n<p>A total of 83 orders for alternative-fueled vessels have been ordered in the first four months of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter a slow start to the year, it is encouraging to see an uptick in orders for alternative-fueled vessels in April. While the broader trend towards LNG remains evident in the data, it is also interesting to see a wider spread among the segments this month, with notable uptake in the tanker and cruise segments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ordering of four ammonia-fueled vessels in the bulker segment also stands out. While ammonia is still at an early stage as a marine fuel, projects like this \u2013 and the operational experience gained from them \u2013 are essential for moving the industry from concept to capability and taking practical steps towards wider adoption,\u201d said Jason Stefanatos, Global Decarbonization Director at DNV Maritime.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>maritime professional<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; &#13; May 6, 2026&#13; &#13; &#13; (Credit: DNV) &#13; &#13; (Credit: DNV) &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; According to the latest figures from DNV\u2019s Alternative Fuels Insight (AFI) platform, 38 new orders for alternative-fueled vessels were placed in April 2026.
