Singapore-based Eastern Pacific Shipping (EPS) has sealed a long-term charter deal with US shipping and logistics company Crowley for four LNG-fuelled newbuild containerships.
The 1,400 teu vessels will be built by Korea’s Hyundai Mipo Dockyard and deliver in 2025, expanding Crowley’s fleet and supply chain capabilities connecting US markets to Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador.
The ships will be fitted with high-pressure ME-GI engines from MAN Energy Solutions, reducing methane slippage to negligible levels and making these vessels the most environmentally efficient in their category.
