Marine fuel
that meets
environmental
regulations
Shipping regulations (IMO 2020) require
cleaner-burning fuels
Methanol is a clean-burning fuel that
meets regulations and is cost competitive
over the cycle
Approximately 60% of Waterfront
Shipping's (Methanex's wholly owned
subsidiary) fleet will be able to run on
methanol, and other low-sulphur fuels
which provides flexibility
Several other companies have begun to
use or are currently commissioning their
own methanol-powered vessels
Vehicle
fuel that
reduces
emissions
Methanol is an affordable gasoline
substitute in China
Reduces emissions when blended with or
substituted for gasoline
Several other countries are at the
assessment or near-commercial stage for
low-level methanol fuel blending
•
Lower
emission
fuel source
Methanol is used as an alternative to
coal for industrial boilers and kilns to
reduce emissions
Currently represents approximately 2M
tons of demand
Represents significant upside potential for long-term demand
