  "account": "Singapore's Minister for Energy, Trade and Industry Tan See Leng highlighted Bio-LNG's potential in ensuring energy resilience amid global disruptions on Oct 9. At the Shell Powering Progress Together forum, Tan emphasized the need for diverse, secure, and affordable energy supply while working towards net-zero emissions by 2050. Shell and state-owned gas terminal operator Singapore LNG Corporation (SLNG) successfully delivered and unloaded a shipment of bio-LNG at SLNG's Jurong Island terminal for the first time, meeting strict EU sustainability standards. SLNG is expanding with a third jetty, expected to be completed by the second half of 2028, which will bolster the terminal's capacity to handle two million tonnes per annum of LNG bunker reload demand. The new jetty will also accommodate break-bulk and other small-scale LNG operations, further solidifying Singapore's position as a leading global bunkering and LNG trading hub. SLNG CEO Leong Wei Hung stated that Jetty 3 will support the maritime industry's transition towards lower-carbon fuels and the energy sector's. Tan emphasized that the development of biofuel represents one of many different paths towards maintaining Singapore's energy resilience, as different sectors require various technologies and fuels.",
