A new company focusing on LNG-fuelled containerships has made its first move by signing letters of intent (LOIs) with shipyards in South Korea and China for a raft of newbuildings.
Sources told TradeWinds that Clean Carriers has signed LOIs for boxships of about 10,000 teu, 12,000 teu and 15,000 teu.
They said the technical design work had been done with yards and that vessels would be bespoke and service-ready for areas in which liner companies wanted to charter them.
