The Seamen were then able to provide a new training program for the youth, which included new training and field equipment, a new storage container, and `Rugby Rookie` resource kits.

We are sounding our horn for AltaGas to celebrate its new dual-fuel LPG vessels, Boreal Voyager and Boreal Pioneer!
They will deliver Canadian LPG from the Port of #PrinceRupert to key markets in Asia and enable greater efficiency in trans-Pacific energy supply chains.
By using LPG, these new vessels provide a 25% reduction in emissions from traditional bunker fuel and a 90% drop in nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides – the two main pollutants from ship emissions.
The Prince Rupert Port Authority was honoured to be part of the ship naming ceremony in Ulsan, South Korea, hosted by SK Shipping and Hyundai Heavy Industries. It marks an important milestone in the ongoing collaboration with our industry partners to develop the West Coast Green Shipping Corridor and cut carbon emissions at the Prince Rupert Gateway by 30% by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
UPCOMING TRAINING EXERCISE 📣🚨
On Saturday March 2nd, search and rescue exercises will be conducted throughout Prince Rupert’s inner harbour. These activities will happen between 11AM and 4PM and involve multiple vessels. A non-toxic smoke generator will be used during the drills.
This joint training will include Prince Rupert Port Authority, Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue, Canadian Coast Guard, Coastal Nations Coast Guard Auxiliary, and Prince Rupert Ground Search and Rescue.
Participants will gather at the Cow Bay Breakwater. There are no waterfront walkway closures planned, but members of the public are asked to maintain a safe distance to allow emergency responders the space to conduct their training.
