John Fredriksen's SFL Corp has appointed Germany's Lauterjung Shipmanagement as technical manager of its new LNG-fuelled car carriers.
The New York-listed shipping company said at the end of April that it was ordering two 7,000-car equivalent unit (ceu) vessels backed by charters to an unnamed European car maker over 10 years in a deal worth $200m.
Norwegian project finance and equity provider NRP Finans revealed the appointment and said it had advised SFL on the deal.
