OCI's bio-LNG is a drop-in replacement for fossil LNG in heavy trucks. It uses liquefied biomethane from waste streams to cut lifecycle CO2 emissions by a large double-digit percentage compared to diesel. Trucks keep their existing engines and refueling infrastructure, which matters for logistics fleets that cannot easily switch to battery electric. The fuel targets European long-haul operators who need verifiable carbon savings for customer tenders. OCI positions bio-LNG alongside renewable ammonia and methanol as a bridge product for hard to electrify sectors. The main limits are feedstock availability and a still thin refueling network in some regions. Pricing sits above fossil LNG and often above diesel, though subsidies and green premium contracts can narrow the gap. Third-party certification is critical to back the emission claims. For OCI, bio-LNG gives a tangible low-carbon offering beyond long-term pledges.
