Anthony Veder has taken delivery of two 10,000 m3 combined gas carriers, which can transport LNG and petrochemical gases including ethylene (LEG).
With this transaction Anthony Veder expands its fleet to 33 vessels and reinforces its leading position in small scale LNG. With eight small scale LNG vessels, the company supports the development of LNG as a marine fuel and the distribution of LNG for power supply.
From Skaugen Fleet
The gas carriers were part of the Skaugen fleet and are renamed Coral Favia and Coral Fungia. As an integrated shipping company, Anthony Veder will take over the commercial operation and ship management from the current managers.

Upgrade
Jan Valkier, CEO of Anthony Veder says these ships will support the company's customers in developing the small scale LNG market globally. 'After a short yard period to upgrade them to our standards, the vessels are available to our customers in the second quarter of 2019.'
