The South Korean shipbuilder Samsung Heavy Industries has designed and delivered a vessel capable of transporting 174,000 cubic meters of chilled fuel, almost a year after the vessel's keel was laid in March 2020.
Minerva Kalymnos is the first of three tankers in a series contracted by Minerva to Samsung Heavy. Within 2021, the second vessel in the series is scheduled for delivery.
XDF propulsion, Mark III Flex+ containment system, and an airliquide subcooler system are features of Minerva Kalymnos.
Minerva added that the vessel will begin its term employment with a major LNG charterer immediately.
