The first ship is set to be delivered by 2nd half 2025, bringing the number of dual-fuel vessels in the pipeline for the X-Press Feeders Group to 14. The vessels will join in the ranks of Eastaway’s managed fleet and will be operated by X-Press Feeders. 2    X-Press Feeders has set a target of net-zero emissions by 2050, aiming to be ‘The Greener Feeder Carrier Of Choice’. The group moves closer to its targets with this additional fleet of dual-fuel newbuilds while employing other strategies such as carbon capture and exploration of future fuels.  About the vessels 3    Compared to other vessels that run on conventional fuels, the new dual-fuel vessels will produce about 75% less emissions when operating on green methanol. The vessels will adopt the Sdari Sealion CV1250 Methanol dual fuel design, built by CSSC Huangpu Wenchong Shipbuilding Company Limited. The 6 vessels will be of Ice Class, with delivery dates estimated between Q3 2025 to Q3 2026. Initial deployment of the vessels will likely be in X-Press Feeders established European network. 4    “*X-Press Feeders is excited to be expanding our fleet of dual-fuel vessels with these newbuilds. To achieve our goal of reaching net-zero emission by 2050, we must take concrete steps today. This order of 6 dual-fuel methanol vessels is proof of our commitment to not only talk about carbon neutrality goals but invest and take risks to achieve them. X-Press Feeders will continue to look at ways to further invest resources to reduce emissions through more efficient operations and promoting sustainable practices throughout our network,*” said X-Press Feeders Chief Executive Officer, Shmuel Yoskovitz.     ## Latest News ### [X-Press Feeders Urges Fair Treatment for Detained Crew in Sri Lanka](https://www.x-pressfeeders.com/news/x-press-feeders-urges-fair-treatment-for-detained-crew-in-sri-lanka) ### [X-Press Feeders Group and COSCO SHIPPING Lines Sign Partnership and Leasing Agreement to Enhance Feeder Connectivity](https://www.x-pressfeeders.com/news/x-press-feeders-group-and-cosco-shipping-lines-sign-partnership-and-leasing-agreement-to-enhance-feeder-connectivity) ### [X-Press Feeders’ French Leasing Arrangement for Dual-Fuel Vessels Wins Marine Money 2024 East Leasing Deal of the Year](https://www.x-pressfeeders.com/news/x-press-feeders-french-leasing-arrangement-for-dual-fuel-vessels-wins-marine-money-2024-east-leasing-deal-of-the-year) ### [The Role of Sustainable Shipping in Ecommerce’s Path to Net Zero](https://www.x-pressfeeders.com/news/the-role-of-sustainable-shipping-in-ecommerces-path-to-net-zero) ### [New Service Launch -
