Thursday afternoon 10 december the CMA CGM Champs Elysees will arrive at RWG for its maiden call in the Port of Rotterdam. The vessel is a LNG-powered vessel of the very large container ships (VLCS) generation. An important step in the transition towards LNG, a more carbon-neutral fuel for the shipping industry. RWG is the first deep sea terminal to be 'LNG ready' in the Netherlands. The CMA CGM Champs Elysees is a 23,000 TEU vessel, in a series of nine, owned by CMA-CGM. The vessel is 400 meters long and 61 meters wide and is currently deployed in the NEU4 service of Ocean Alliance.
