Shipbuilders submitted bids this week to build 10 LNG carriers to serve Arctic production projects planned by Russian energy company Novatek.
Newbuilding sources said South Korea’s big three shipyards — Samsung Heavy Industries, DSME and Hyundai Heavy Industries — and China’s only large LNG carrier builder, Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding (Group), were due to offer in on the high-spec, ice-class ships on Tuesday.
