Malaysian LNG shipping firm MISC has ordered one 18,700-cbm LNG carrier from China's Hudong-Zhonghua, backed by a 10-year charter deal with a unit of its parent Petronas.
A unit of Canadian firm Frontera Energy has entered into a deal with a US-based FSRU player to charter one floating storage and regasification unit which will be installed in Cartagena, Colombia. The company also entered into a take-or-pay agreement with Colombia's state-owned energy firm Ecopetrol to provide integrated logistics and LNG regasification services.
US FSRU player Excelerate Energy has signed a letter of intent with Singapore's Seatrium to convert its liquefied natural gas carrier into a floating storage and regasification unit, according to Excelerate's management.
US FSRU player Excelerate Energy will deploy its newbuild floating storage and regasification unit, Excelerate Acadia, to Jordan under a nine-month contract due to the delayed startup of the Iraq LNG terminal amid the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
