Japanese shipowner Mitsui OSK Lines is being named as the company behind a KRW 609.7bn ($496.4m) order for two LNG carriers contracted at Samsung Heavy Industries.
The South Korean shipbuilder said in an exchange announcement on Wednesday that it had received the orders from “an Oceanian shipper” without naming the company behind the vessels.
SHI said the newbuildings are due for delivery from mid-January 2027.
