Dutch manufacturer Value Maritime (VM) has sealed what it says is the first scrubber lease financing deal separate from a vessel.
It carried out a transaction with finance partner Beequip and a shipowner for a 3MW exhaust gas cleaner that has been installed on an unnamed ship for nine months.
VM director Maarten Lodewijks said: “We are happy that our first lease partner Beequip made this possible for our client.
