Oslo-based car carrier owner Norwegian Car Carriers (NOCC) has secured a long-term bareboat charter with US-based Liberty Global Logistics (LGL) for the second of its newbuildings.

Chief executive officer Olav Sollie confirms the deal for the 6,500 car capacity NOCC Baltic (built 2017), which will be renamed Liberty Peace and transferred to US flag.

The sistership Liberty Passion (built 2017) is already fixed for up to eight years to LGL and the NOCC Baltic charter is expected to run for the same length of time.
