Shipowner GasLog has given Keppel Shipyard the go-ahead to start the conversion of an LNG carrier into the floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) that will serve Greece’s Alexandroupolis project.

Keppel said it had received the final notice to proceed (FNTP) from GAS-fifteen Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GasLog Carriers for the engineering procurement construction (EPC) conversion of an LNG carrier into an FSRU, after a limited notice was given in November 2021.
