| Abstract | Diesel-fueled ships have long been considered to contribute a marginal fraction of the global methane (CH4) emission budget compared to liquified natural gas (LNG)-fueled ships. Here, based on real-world measurements, we find that a specific yet-overlooked group of diesel-fueled ships-the old small fishing vessels (OSFVs)-is associated with high levels of CH4 emissions. The emission factors of CH4 from OSFVs is on average 5.2 +/- 6.4 g CH4 per 1 kg fuel consumed, approaching EFCH4 of LNG-fueled ships (5.3-30.1 g/kg) and being at least six times EFCH4 of other types of diesel-fueled ships (0.0-0.9 g/kg). We estimate that CH4 emissions from OSFVs in China amount to 570-2,240 t per year, which is comparable to the total CH4 emission from all LNG-fueled ships worldwide. Our results thus call for revision of the global CH4 emission inventory for shipping. |
