The owners will take delivery of the 174,000-cbm LNG Phecda by the end of this month.<\/p>\n

To remind, Hudong recently said<\/a> the vessel wrapped up its gas trials on July 21 completing its last major test prior to its official naming ceremony.<\/p>\n

LNG Phecda is the third in a series of four Yamal-dedicated vessels ordered by the MOL-Cosco venture at Hudong.<\/p>\n

Each of the 290 meters long ships features WinGD dual-fuel engines and GTT\u2019s cargo containment system.<\/p>\n

The Yamal carriers will not directly load chilled fuel at the 16.5 mtpa LNG plant in the Russian Arctic.<\/p>\n

They will take transshipped LNG at European terminals, previously delivered by ice-class carriers, for onward distribution mainly to Asia.<\/p>\n

Hudong is also finalising works on the fourth Yamal carrier, LNG Megrez.<\/p>\n

The yard delivered the first carrier of this batch, LNG Dubhe, in October 2019 followed by the second vessel, LNG Merak, earlier this year.<\/p>\n
