Russia’s Novatek has reserved more berths than expected for a series of ice-class LNG carriers it needs for the company's Arctic LNG 2 project exports.
It has divided the slots between two South Korean shipyards.
Those following the business said Novatek has agreed to reserve four LNG carrier berths for ice class 1A or Arc4 vessels at Samsung Heavy Industries, in addition to options on two more berths.
