Greece’s Maran Gas, the gas shipping unit of Angelicoussis, has added one more newbuild liquefied natural gas tanker to its large LNG fleet.

South Korea’s Hanwha Ocean delivered the LNG carrier, Maran Gas Syros, according to a social media post by Angelicoussis.

This vessel flies the Greek flag.

Maran Gas Syros has a carrying capacity of 174,000 cubic meters and encompasses the “highest design and construction standards,” Angelicoussis said.

The shipping group did not provide further details.

According to VesselsValue data, Maran Gas ordered this LNG carrier and another vessel at Hanwha Ocean, previously known as DSME, in January 2022 for about $210 million per ship.

In November 2024, Hanwha Ocean secured a new order from Maran Gas to build two LNG carriers.

The deal also includes two optional vessels.

According to Hanwha Ocean, the deal is worth about $510 million or $255 million per vessel.

Including these two new vessels, Maran Gas has ordered a total of 13 LNG carriers at Hanwha Ocean since November 2021.

Maran Gas has 49 ships under management and 11 vessels on order, its website shows.
