BOC, the UK’s largest supplier of compressed and liquefied gases and a member of The Linde Group, has announced that it is to install a liquefied natural gas (LNG) HGV refuelling unit in the UK at Exelby’s Golden Fleece Service station on Junction 42 of the M6 south of Carlisle in Cumbria this spring.
This will be BOC’s first LNG fuel unit on an existing fuel forecourt for HGVs in the UK and hence BOC’s first fully public access LNG refuelling unit.
Today Exelby Services is one of the largest independent bunkering suppliers in the country, handling over 140 million litres of diesel each year through its five fuel sites in the North of England. The company’s sites were designed with trucks in mind and store fuel for most of the major transport, distribution and fuel card companies in the UK.
