Dec 3 (LNGJ) - Awilco LNG, the small Norway-based fleet player, said it took delivery of the "WilPride", its second 156,000 cubic metres capacity tri-fuel, diesel-electric-powered newbuild from Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering South Korea. When the vessel was nearing completion it was sold to Teekay LNG Partners and chartered back by Awilco for a period of four years plus a one-year extension option. The vessel has been fixed for its maiden voyage, Awilco said.
