Giant Japanese shipowner NYK continues to bet on LNG as a pathway to decarbonisation with a new domestic bulker order.
The group has contracted two LNG-fuelled large coal carriers from Oshima Shipbuilding for delivery in 2025. No price was given for the deal.
The 95,000-dwt ships are part of a bulk carrier fleet development plan aimed at achieving net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050.
