Adnoc Logistics & Services (Adnoc L & S) is continuing to renew its LNG carrier fleet with more newbuilding orders.

The Abu Dhabi-based shipowner has signed up for three more 175,000-cbm newbuildings at Jiangnan Shipyard, lifting the tally to five.

Two earlier vessels were ordered with the Chinese shipbuilder in March.

Adnoc L & S said the 175,000-cbm LNG carrier newbuildings are significantly larger than its existing LNG ships, which have a 137,000-cbm cargo capacity.
