Malaysia’s MISC Group has signed contracts to build two LNG dual-fuel Suezmax tankers through its shipping arm, AET, as part of its energy transition strategy.
The vessels will operate under long-term time charter agreements and will expand MISC’s growing dual-fuel fleet. With these orders, MISC said it will have dual-fuel capability across all tanker segments it operates, including Aframax, shuttle tankers, Suezmax and VLCCs.
The company said the move reflects its focus on cleaner and more energy-efficient vessels to support global decarbonisation goals.
“This milestone reinforces MISC Group’s commitment to advancing the energy transition and achieving our GHG reduction ambitions,” said Zahid Osman, President & Group CEO, MISC Group.
