Malaysia’s LNG shipping player MISC, a unit of Petronas, said its LNG business logged a drop in operating profit and revenue in the second quarter of this year. MISC also expects spot LNG carrier rates to remain volatile in the near term because of uncertainties around the Strait of Hormuz situation.
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.
