Pertamina Shipping is seeking offers from shipyards on a series of 22,000-cbm gas carrier newbuildings.

The transport arm of Indonesia’s state-owned oil major, Pertamina, has issued a tender for three semi-refrigerated, midsize vessels to be delivered in 2022.

A shipbuilding player familiar with the project said Pertamina Shipping is inviting technical and commercial bids by early June.

Shipbuilders in South Korea, China and Japan are said to have been approached for quotes on the dual-fuelled vessels.
