LNG

Nov 12 (LNGJ) - Purus Marine, a London-based maritime holding company that owns vessels and infrastructure equipment, has decided to acquire two LNG carriers with capacities of 180,000 cubic metres and with delivery set for the third quarter of 2024, directly into multi-year time charters with an unnamed energy major. A ship management firm will provide technical and commercial services for the vessels. “This acquisition diversifies our fleet and allows us to further support the maritime industry’s transition to a lower-carbon future,” said Svein Engh, a Purus board member.
