Keppel AmFELS has delivered its first LNG-powered containership newbuild to Pasha Hawaii.
The 2,525 teu, LNG-powered, George III, built to a propriety design by the Singapore-headquartered group. A second vessel the Janet Marie is currently under construction at the yard and the two containerships will be the first LNG-powered vessels to serve the US West Coast. They will be deployed by Pasha Hawaii on the Hawaii – US mainland Jones Act trade.
George III is also the first IGF compliant vessel certified by the United States Coast Guard.
The Texas yard is building a wind turbine installation vessel in the US for Dominion Energy, as well as a high-specification Trailing Suction Hopper Dredger for Manson Construction.
