Biofuels are a type of renewable energy derived from biomass, which includes plant or animal waste. These feedstocks can be converted using a range of conversion technologies to generate biofuels such as biodiesel (FAME) as a drop-in solution for fuel oil to meet voluntary or regulatory carbon intensity targets.

Biodiesel (FAME)

Shell provides Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME), or biodiesel, a liquid biofuel suitable for use in conventional and dual-fuel vessels as per ISO-8217^¹. Biodiesel emits less life-cycle GHG emissions when compared to conventional fossil based marine diesel fuel oil^², enabling decarbonisation of shipping operations today. Shell’s biodiesel solutions support the industry’s shift to lower-carbon fuels, in line with regulations like the EU’s Fuel EU Maritime.

Shell supplies biofuels at our Europe (Rotterdam, Antwerp), Singapore and US (New York, Houston, New Orleans) bunkering locations.

Bio-LNG

As a drop-in fuel, bio-LNG can be added to LNG at any proportion to help meet voluntary or regulatory carbon intensity target.

Significant volumes of biogas are being produced today via anaerobic digestion of sustainable biomass feedstock such as manure and can be further scaled up to support the shipping industry’s demand for bio-LNG.

Bio Feedstocks

Sustainability and carbon intensity of biodiesel can vary depending on the feedstock used to produce it and feedstock choices are heavily influenced by regulations which may differ across regions, countries and sectors.

On top of ensuring local regulatory compliance, Shell aims to procure only sustainable feedstocks and biofuels through strict adherence to our internal safeguarding processes. You can read the full Biocomponents Purchasing Policy (PDF, 206 kB)
