Oct 31 (LNGJ) - The 150,000 cubic metres capacity "Ob River " LNG carrier, previously known as "Clean Power", has become the first LNG vessel to sail through the Russian Arctic Northern Sea Route. It sailed in ballast from South Korea to Western Europe and covered the NSR part of the voyage in just six days. It is currently chartered by Russia's Gazprom Marketing & Trading and the aim of the voyage of the "Ob River" was to collect data and verify the technical and commercial viability of the NSR for LNG trading.
