ABS, NTU, Singapore, and ASTI joint study to explore the potential for ammonia as a marine fuel in Singapore
ABS, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, and the Ammonia Safety and Training Institute (ASTI) are collaborating on a study of the potential of ammonia for Singapore, exploring supply, bunkering, and safety challenges with the marine fuel.
Titled Ammonia as a Marine Fuel in Singapore – Supply Chain, Bunker Safety, and Potential Issues, the joint study will look at safety protocols and possible gaps in the supply chain of ammonia as a marine fuel, specifically bunkering for marine vessels.
ExxonMobil, Hoegh LNG, MAN Energy Solutions Singapore, Jurong Port, PSA Singapore and ITOCHU Group with their partners, are initial project partners, contributing technical information about marine fuel handling, vessel to vessel transfer and bunkering in the Port of Singapore.

Wearing masks outdoors, using hand sanitisers, avoiding large gatherings and observing safe distancing are practices that many Singaporeans will maintain even after Covid-19, based on a nationwide online study by Nanyang Technological University (NTU).
More than six in 10 respondents said they are likely to take these precautionary measures and practise good hygiene and habits after the pandemic is under control.
The study of 1,606 people was commissioned by the university s Centre for Information Integrity and the Internet (IN-cube).
The average age of the respondents was 40, and about half of them were male.

A sensor network powered by an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm developed by scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) can accurately detect, in real-time, gas leaks and unwanted water seepage into gas pipeline networks.
Successful in field trials conducted on Singapore s gas pipeline networks, the algorithm has been patented and spun off into a start-up named Vigti, which is now commercialising the technology. It has recently raised early start-up funding from Artesian Capital and Brinc, Hong Kong.
