Greece's Kostas Angelou has been linked to an order for two VLGCs with South Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industries.

But Benelux Overseas Inc, Angelou's best-known company, has denied it is behind such an order, claiming it has not even been in touch with the shipbuilder.

"We don’t have any discussions for a newbuilding project with HHI for VLGCs of 90,000-cbm capacity," Benelux managing director Emmanouil Karamolegos said.
