Swiss trader Montfort has signed a long-term time charter deal for two medium gas carrier (MGC) newbuildings with a Japanese shipowner.
Describing the deal as a “strategic collaboration”, the company said the charter agreements include purchase options.
Montfort did not identify the shipowner involved but said the two ships are under construction at Yangzi-Mitsui Shipbuilding (Yamic) in China and are scheduled for delivery in the second half of 2026.
