Ethane carrier
Jiangnan Shipyard, located just north of Shanghai, has this week delivered the world’s largest ethane carrier to UK firm Ineos.
The Pacific Ineos Belstaff, a 60,000-dwt ethane carrier, can transport 99,000 cubic metres of liquid gas.
The ship has a huge B-type tank and a shipyard-developed gas containment system that can handle a range of liquified gas cargos, including LPG, ethylene, and ethane.
Three more 99,000 cu m VLECs are being built by Jiangnan Shipbuilding and will be delivered in 2022.
