First giant LNG FSU poised for delivery to Russian Arctic

The first of two massive LNG floating storage units (FSUs) for deployment in the Russian Arctic is nearing completion at Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering for a possible delivery this month, despite delays to Russia’s next-up LNG project.

TradeWinds has obtained some of the first photos to emerge of the 361,600-cbm sister ships Saam FSU and Koryak FSU, which are to become the focal points of two transshipment hubs.
