LNG

Sept 4 (LNGJ) - Monaco-based LNG shipping company GasLog said it signed a 10-year time charter with the China-led power project company Sinolam for the provision of an LNG floating storage unit (FSU) for a joint LNG import terminal and related gas-fired power project being developed at Colón on the Caribbean coast of Panama.

   The time charter is expected to be fulfilled through the conversion of the “GasLog Singapore”, a 155,000 cubic metres capacity vessel with tri-fuel diesel-electric propulsion and built in 2010. “The required modifications are such that, as well as being FSU-ready, the vessel will still be able to trade as an LNG carrier following the conversion works,” explained GasLog.
