Engine manufacturer Wartsila will keep maintaining the propulsion systems of much of the Angelicoussis Group’s LNG fleet until at least 2027.

Maran Gas Maritime, the group’s gas carrier arm, agreed on 3 May to extend an existing agreement with the Finland-based technology company for five years.

The deal covers Maran’s fleet of 21 tri-fuel diesel-electric LNG carriers.

The two companies first struck a five-year service agreement in 2014.
