John Angelicoussis’ Maran Gas Maritime is being linked to an LNG carrier newbuilding contracted at Samsung Heavy Industries.
The South Korean yard said on Monday that it had won an order for a single LNG carrier priced at KRW 206bn ($186m) but not did name the contracting party.
The vessel is due for delivery in July 2023.
TradeWinds understands the firm ship was secured along with two optional berths, which has led to speculation that the order is connected to upcoming business with Total.
