TSM goes back to Jiangnan for another dual-fuel VLGC

China’s Tianjin Southwest Maritime (TSM) is adding another LPG-fuelled gas carrier newbuilding to its growing fleet.

Industry sources said the Guangzhou-based shipowner has signed up for a second dual-fuel, 86,000-cbm VLGC at Jiangnan Shipyard.

They said the deal involves the exercising of an option that the company held at the yard when it ordered a similar ship, as reported by TradeWinds in January.
