The shipbuilder started building this ice class 1A vessel in October 2020.

Earlier this year, Jiangnan installed two type C bi-lobe cargo tanks, one with a capacity of 16,000 cbm and the other with a capacity of 14,000 cbm, onto the vessel.

TGE Marine, the manufacturer of the tanks, claims these are the two of the world’s largest bi-lobe type C LNG tanks.

Besides the tanks, the DNV-classed ship also features dual-fuel propulsion.

According to Anthony’s Veder website, besides this new vessel, the company’s fleet includes five small LNG/ethylene carriers, three LNG carriers, and two LNG bunkering vessels.
