C.R. England, Shell ink LNG agreement

Feb. 14, 2014

C.R. England and Shell have reached on a bulk fueling agreement to support new liquefied natural gas (LNG) powered trucks. The trucks will be powered by a 12L spark-ignited ISX engines and serve southern California.

“C.R. England continually strives to find and implement greener transportation options,” said Zach England, COO of C.R. England. “We believe natural gas is the best alternative fuel to diesel currently available for long-haul Class 8 trucks. In addition to reducing emissions, we believe there is the potential to reduce fuel costs and operate trucks that run quieter than those using diesel. We are incredibly excited to incorporate LNG tractors into our fleet and see great potential for future expansion.”

C.R. England is one of the nation’s largest transportation companies and the world’s largest temperature-controlled carrier.
