LNG shipping-focused Seapeak has had a busy first 18 months under its new name and owner.

Formerly Teekay LNG, the company was bought by equity fund manager Stonepeak in January 2022.

Speaking to TradeWinds, Seapeak president and chief executive Mark Kremin admitted he was a bit nervous about the shift to being controlled by private equity — Stonepeak has more than $50bn under management — but described it as having been “a delight” so far.
