Norwegian shipowner Awilco LNG has scored its highest charter rate to date after fixing out one of its two tri-fuel diesel-electric (TFDE) LNG carriers.
Brokers said the company fixed the 156,000-cbm WilPride (built 2013) to Cheniere Energy at a rate in the region of $145,000 per day for a 70 to 90-day period.
Awilco confirmed on Friday that the WilPride had been committed on a two-to-three month contract but did not name the vessel’s charterer.
