London-headquartered small-scale LNG carrier owner Avenir LNG has handed the operation of three bunker ships to Norway’s Wilhelmsen Ship Management (WSM).
The 20,000-cbm Avenir Achievement (built 2022) and the 7,500-cbm pair Avenir Ascension (built 2022) and Avenir Aspiration (built 2021) were previously managed by Hoegh LNG, one of the company’s three blue-chip backers alongside Stolt-Nielsen and Golar LNG.
“We are thrilled to embark on this journey with our new client, Avenir, and we look forward to managing these state-of-the-art LNG bunker tankers, which hold a pivotal role in the industry’s ongoing energy transition,” said WSM chief executive Carl Schou.
