In the coming decade, LNG carriers (“LNGC”) may probably be classified into large scale LNGC and medium scale LNGC centering on the hub ports over the world. Meanwhile, LEG carriers (“LEGC”), which have been usually small ones, are expected to shift to larger LEGCs, which are comparable with medium scale LNGC in terms of the capacity. In the expectation of the new market development on the intersection of the said two trends and growing trade scale of liquefied petroleum gas (“LPG”) such as propane and butane, MES developed “neo82GC” a prototype of medium size multi gas carrier. In the past years, MES has developed and offered to the market its “neo” series, next generation eco-friendly ships, in bulk carrier sector. This time, gas carrier is added to the lineup. MES will get support from Moss Maritime a.s to collaborate in further technical review of the multi gas carrier. MES continues to focus on expanding the lineup and accumulating order backlog of “neo” series so as to have its brand further established. (MES) Mitsui Engineering & Shipbuilding Co.
