BW LNG held the naming ceremony for two LNG newbuildings at Okpo Shipyard, DSME on August 10th.

The two Singapore-flagged vessels feature a state-of-the-art design that enables even greater focus on safe operations and flexibility, as well as the industry’s lowest fuel consumption and emissions profile. Both ships have a carrying capacity of 174,000 cbm, and are equipped with MEGI propulsion and full reliquefaction system.

Both vessels will go straight into long-term charters with their  key clients; BW ENN Snow Lotus (h2509) will be delivered to ENN and BW Cassia (h2510) will be delivered to BP.

A big thank you to our vessels’ godmothers Ms Zhang Jin, Vice Chairman of ENN Group and Mrs Carol Howle, EVP, Trading & Shipping of BP, for blessing BW ENN Snow Lotus and BW Cassia, respectively. 

They are committed to providing high-quality vessels and operations to their LNG customers, and supporting the progress towards a low-carbon society.

The relationship between BW and DSME is longstanding and represents a true partnership that is solution-oriented and quality-focused.
