 POSEIDON MED II - LNG Bunkering

POSEIDON MED which a European co-

funded project which aims to bring the
wide adoption of LNG as fuel in Eastern
Mediterranean, while making Greece an
international marine bunkering and
distribution hub for LNG in South Eastern
Europe.

Poseidon Med II is the continuation of

Poseidon Med (COSTA II East) &
Archipelago-LNG
