El portacontenedores ofrece envíos más rápidos y frecuentes para EE. UU. y Centroamérica

JACKSONVILLE, Florida, 15 de abril de 2025 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- El nuevo buque portacontenedores impulsado por gas natural licuado (GNL) de Crowley, el Quetzal, ha comenzado con éxito su viaje comercial inaugural, con lo que abre la próxima era de la empresa de envíos marítimos más rápidos y frecuentes con una nueva clase de embarcaciones para EE. UU., América Central y República Dominicana.

Con capacidad para hasta 1.400 unidades equivalentes a 20 pies (TEU, por sus siglas en inglés) de contenedor, Quetzal y sus tres próximos buques hermanos de la clase Avance proporcionarán más capacidad de carga mientras utilizan gas natural licuado (GNL) de bajas emisiones como combustible. Quetzal y sus barcos hermanos se diseñaron específicamente para adaptarse a una variedad de tamaños de contenedores, incluidos 300 tapones de unidades de contenedores refrigerados.

La clase Avance, es especialmente adecuada para transportar rápidamente productos perecederos como alimentos y productos farmacéuticos, así como productos minoristas, prendas de vestir, carga fraccionada y otros artículos esenciales.

Quetzal inició sus servicios el 11 y 12 de abril en el Puerto de Santo Tomás, Guatemala. Nombrados en honor a la cultura y las comunidades centroamericanas, se espera que los buques de clase Avance, construidos por Hyundai Mipo Dockyard de Corea, entren en servicio en 2025 desde el propietario Eastern Pacific Shipping, que opera bajo fletes a largo plazo con Crowley. 

"Quetzal y los barcos de la clase Avance representan la próxima generación de innovación y liderazgo de Crowley en soluciones de cadena de suministro para el transporte marítimo internacional en la cuenca del Caribe", afirmó Tom Crowley, presidente y director general. "Los buques brindan un servicio frecuente y mayores capacidades para entregar la carga en el momento preciso, al tiempo que llevan adelante los altos estándares operativos de Crowley. Con las décadas de servicio de la empresa en Centroamérica y República Dominicana, la Clase Avance es una inversión estratégica de Crowley en el futuro de este comercio internacional, para establecer un nuevo estándar de eficiencia ambiental".

Quetzal también se basa en el compromiso de Crowley con el avance del GNL como solución en la transición energética de la industria marítima. Los barcos de la clase Avance de Crowley cuentan con motores ME-GI de alta presión de MAN Energy Solutions, que reducen el deslizamiento de metano a niveles insignificantes y hacen que estos buques sean los más eficientes desde el punto de vista ambiental en su categoría. El GNL en sí mismo reduce las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero de los buques, como el óxido de azufre, el dióxido de carbono y el óxido de nitrógeno, al tiempo que elimina las partículas en comparación con el combustible diésel convencional.

Acerca de Crowley 
Crowley es una empresa privada de soluciones marítimas, energéticas y logísticas de propiedad y operación estadounidenses. Durante más de 130 años, su portafolio de negocios ha brindado servicios innovadores de transporte marítimo y terrestre para los sectores comercial y gubernamental.
