Darwin
is the capital city of the Northern Territory of Australia, situated on the Timor Sea. It is the largest city in the sparsely populated Northern Territory, with a population of 145,916. It is the smallest and most northerly of the Australian capital cities, and acts as the Top End's regional centre.
Darwin's proximity to South East Asia makes it a link between Australia and countries such as Indonesia and East Timor. The Stuart Highway begins in Darwin, extends southerly across central Australia through Tennant Creek and Alice Springs, concluding in Port Augusta, South Australia.
Darwin is closer to the capitals of five other countries than to the capital of Australia: Darwin is 3,137 kilometres (1,949 mi) away from Canberra. Dili (East Timor) is 656 km (408 mi), Port Moresby (Papua New Guinea) is 1,818 km (1,130 mi), Jakarta (Indonesia) is 2,700 km (1,678 mi), Bandar Seri Begawan (Brunei) is 2,607 km (1,620 mi), and Ngerulmud (Palau) is 2,247 km (1,396 mi) from Darwin.
Darwin
is not hydrogen ready as we write, hence clean fleet operators
will have to seek alternative handling facilities to comply
with the IMO's
2040 target.

11TH
LEG - At
a speed of 13 knots the eleventh leg of the hydrogen
powered zero carbon voyage
would take just over five days to complete, free of emissions.
The demonstration of ZEWT
technology in action, could help speed up the transition to
non polluting waterborne
transport. These projections are only a guide. Many of the
ports of call could be bypassed completely to give us a
shorter passage.
