Japanese shipowner Mitsui OSK Lines (MOL) has given details about its moves to improve vessel operations following an accidental release of LNG from a vessel at Barcelona’s terminal last year.

Speaking to TradeWinds, London-based MOL LNG-E managing director Andy Richardson said the incident — details of which were not widely reported outside Spain — saw some 11 cbm of LNG released from the 138,000-cbm Fuwairit (built 2004) at Enagas’ terminal on 19 June 2015.
