Swire projects has struck a long-term charter deal for six multipurpose (MPP) heavy lift vessels with Nordic Projects & Finance.

Swire Projects did not disclose the name of the vessels but said the deal involves four 12,700-dwt and two 19,600-dwt MPP heavylift vessels built between 2007 and 2011.

The MPP vessels will be delivered to Swire Projects in December this year, once they have completed their current charter commitments.
