A 13-year-old steam turbine LNG carrier has been taken on a multi-year time charter by CNTIC VPower, the joint venture developing Myanmar’s first LNG import project.

Brokers reported that the 145,127-cbm Methane Alison Victoria (built 2007) had been fixed for three years at a rate around the $30,000-per-day mark.

The vessel is due to be delivered to its charterers shortly and is expected to be used as a floating storage unit.
