Crowley has raised the U.S. flag on the American Energy, a 1994-built, 130,400 cubic meter LNG carrier previously named Puteri Intan. The vessel has been reflagged under a provision of the Coast Guard Authorization Act of 1996 and becomes the first U.S.-flagged and crewed LNG carrier to transport U.S.-sourced natural gas to Puerto Rico.

U.S. sanctions continue to severely hamper Russia’s efforts to deliver LNG from the designated Arctic LNG 2 plant to customers. Five months after loading cargo at the Arctic gas terminal LNG carrier East Energy (139,833-cbm) moored up yesterday alongside the Koryak floating storage barge to...
Liquid natural gas producers have been avoiding the Red Sea for much of 2024 amid continuous attacks by Houthi militants. This may now be changing as the first LNG carrier…
After more than six months at sea sanctioned LNG carrier La Perouse has entered the Omani port of Duqm. It is the first time that a Russian LNG carrier, part of the so-called ‘shadow-fleet’, has entered a foreign port.
Τα πλοία LNG παραγγέλλονται κυρίως για να υποστηρίξουν νέα έργα υγροποίησης, αλλά οι καθυστερήσεις στην εκκίνηση των έργων έχουν οδηγήσει αυτά τα πλοία στην αγορά spot

The Liberian Registry, the world’s largest registry, and the Korean Register (KR) have granted Approval in Principle (AiP) to Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) for the basic design of a wing sail-equipped LNG carrier. The wing sail, an eco-friendly auxiliary propulsion system, generates thrust through lift created by the pressure difference between the upper and lower sections of its wing structure, resembling the form of a sail.
In addition to the wing sail, the design features a forward bridge...

Υπό κατασκευή έχει άλλο LNG Carrier Hull SN2652 σε κορεατικά ναυπηγεία – Και τα δύο έχουν μεταφορική ικανότητα 174.000 κυβικών μέτρων
ABS, which has a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) contract to research barriers to the adoption of advanced nuclear propulsion on commercial vessels, has released a new report on the potential of nuclear technology for maritime. It focuses on the potential for a nuclear-powered LNG carrier fitted with a small modular reactor.
The study looks at the impact of a high-temperature, gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) on the design, operation and emissions of a 145,000 cubic meter LNG carrier. The design was...
Wind assistance is finding favor in an ever growing range of vessel types and trades. It’s now reaching the LNG sector, where Chevron Shipping Company LLC, a subsidiary of Chevron U.S.A. Inc., and Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL) have reached an agreement to install a Wind Challenger hard sail wind-assisted ship propulsion system on a new build 174,000 cubic meter LNG carrier.
The vessel is under long term charter from MOL Encean Pte. Ltd. (a MOL 100% indirectly owned subsidiary) to Chevron Asia...
