Fratelli Cosulich Group Launches New Chemical Bunker Tanker
On October 9, 2025, the Fratelli Cosulich Group launched Maya Cosulich — the world’s first methanol-powered IMO II chemical bunker tanker — at Taizhou Maple Leaf Shipyard.
The ceremony was attended by Ms. Hoe Sook Mei from the Fratelli Cosulich Singapore office, who served as the Godmother of Maya Cosulich.
Designed by SeaTech Solutions International Pte Ltd, the Maya Cosulich features diesel-electric propulsion, onboard battery storage, and two mass flow meters (MFMs). Fully compliant with the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore’s (MPA) methanol bunkering standards, it sets a new benchmark for safe and efficient delivery of alternative marine fuels in the region.
Upon her arrival and delivery to Singapore by the end of 2025, Maya Cosulich will commence operations under time charter with TFG Marine, becoming the first methanol dual-fuel bunker tanker to operate in the Port of Singapore.
The Maya Cosulich project represents the culmination of a collaboration that began in 2023 between Fratelli Cosulich Group, TFG Marine, the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, and technical and shipyard partners.
