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.
