Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. today announced that on September 4, the naming and launching ceremony was held for the LNG-fueled ferry Sunflower Pirka, under construction at Naikai Zosen Corporation by MOL and MOL Group company MOL Sunflower Ltd. The LNG-fueled tugboat Ishin, operated by MOL Group company Nihon Tug-Boat Co., Ltd., assisted with towing operations during the ferry launch. MOL will proactively adopt LNG, a low-carbon fuel that can be used immediately, and lead the world toward realizing a low-carbon/decarbonized society.
With the new building ferry, the Sunflower Kurenai and Sunflower Murasaki already in service on the Osaka-Beppu route since 2023, and the sister ship Sunflower Kamuy, which is scheduled to enter service in early 2025 as the first ship on the Oarai-Tomakomai route, the MOL Group will operate a fleet of 4 LNG-fueled ferries on East-West routes in Japan. Boasting Japan’s largest service route network and the most LNG-fueled ferries in operation, the group offers stable logistics and passenger services. MOL Sunflower operates 10 ferries and 5 RORO vessels on 6 routes, giving the company Japan’s largest ferry fleet and most extensive route network and reliable service for logistics and passengers.
