Small-scale venture Avenir LNG is considering the employment options for its first newbuilding, which will be delivered in just over six months.

Avenir commercial director Mats Fagerberg told TradeWinds that the first of four 7,500-cbm LNG newbuildings being built by the company is scheduled for delivery in December. That is in advance of the planned mid-2020 start-up of a new LNG-receiving terminal that the London-headquartered company is constructing in Sardinia.
