These vessels are the 2013-built 155,000-cbm, GasLog Sydney, and the 2014-built, GasLog Saratoga.
In March 2022, GasLog and a unit of CDB Leasing also completed the sale and lease-back of the 2013-built 155,000-cbm, GasLog Skagen.
In total, the fleet of both GasLog and GasLog Partners consists of 38 LNG carriers with four vessels under construction, according to GasLog’s website.
