A small-scale LNG carrier newbuilding that was ordered in China seven years ago but never delivered has been earmarked to serve as a shuttle vessel for a planned power project in Myanmar.

The 28,000-cbm Qi Yuan is now listed by Clarksons’ Shipping Intelligence Network under the name of in-service newbuilding CNTIC VPower Global.

The ship was built by Cosco Shipping Heavy Industry (Dalian) and is detailed as being delivered last month to registered owner CNTIC VPower LNG Logistics.
