Mitsui OSK Lines (MOL) has ordered four 7,000-ceu LNG-fuelled car carriers in Japan as part of a plan to shift its fleet to alternative fuels.
MOL said the ships will be constructed at Shin Kurushima Dockyard and Nihon Shipyard, a joint venture between Imabari Shipbuilding and Japan Marine United.
Delivery of the ships will begin in 2024.
