Solvang has secured a bareboat charter for the oldest of its 23 LPG carriers.

Shipbrokers said Peru’s Transgas has taken the 12,600-cbm Clipper Viking (built 1998) on a two-year contract, but president Luis Boca­negra said that term is incorrect.

He declined to provide details on the charter rate and term, but said Transgas plans to use the semi-­refrigerated Clipper Viking for a contract with Mexichem, a Mexican petrochemical company and producer of plastic pipes.
