South Korea\u2019s DSME will deliver the 173,400-cbm Flex Artemis on August 17, according the firm controlled by billionaire John Fredriksen.<\/p>\n

Once delivered, the LNG carrier will start its long-term charter deal with Clearlake Shipping, a unit of energy trader\u00a0Gunvor. <\/p>\n

The time charter is for a period of up to ten years where the first five years are firm.<\/p>\n

Flex Artemis is fitted with MAN’s high pressure two-stroke slow-speed propulsion system (ME-GI) and GTT’s NO96 containment system.<\/p>\n

It also features a reliquefaction system with a boil-off rate of 0.035% per day.<\/p>\n

This is the second newbuild of the year for the LNG shipper following the delivery of the 174,000-cbm Flex Aurora<\/a> last month.<\/p>\n

Flex LNG has five more newbuilds on order in South Korea with three scheduled for delivery this year and two in the first half of 2021.<\/p>\n
