Basalt Infrastructure Partners has acquired the 180,000 cu m ‘Celsius Galapagos’ for its Vanadis’ investment portfolio.
The addition of ‘Celsius Galapagos’ brings the Vanadis platform to four vessels, and 11 in total across Basalt’s two LNG portfolios, Vanadis and Freyja, demonstrating the continued delivery of Basalt’s strategy to add further scale to its fleet, the company said on a social media post.
She was delivered in May, 2025 from Samsung Heavy Industries and is employed on a long-term, fixed timecharter to a leading, investment grade counterparty active within the production, sale and distribution of LNG.
This investment brings together existing operating partners and counterparties with an exceptional track record of delivery, the company added.
She is fitted with the latest ME-GA propulsion system, offering fuel efficiency and associated low emissions.
The LNGC is managed and operated by Celsius Shipping, Basalt’s operating partner across its Vanadis and Freyja LNG portfolios.
