Canada has launched its first LNG-fuelled ferry called the MV Armand-Imbeau II. The ferry is the first of two dual fuel ferries built for Société des Traversiers du Québec. The ferry includes the LNGPac fuel storage system, which operates on dual fuel, making the vessel one of the most environmentally friendly ferries in operation.

The use of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) as a cheaper and less polluting alternative to diesel for generators providing the power to remote sites is becoming increasingly widespread. With many thousands of sites throughout the world, oil and gas drilling industry companies are among the operators who have introduced the technique, which involves the use of specialised trailer-based plant to deliver, store and process the gas prior to combustion.
