Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha ("K" Line) announced that, following the delivery of the newly built LNG carrier Puteri Johor to Petronas LNG at Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding in China, its sister vessel, Puteri Kedah, was delivered at the same shipyard. Both vessels are owned by "K" Line joint ventures.
The vessels were christened as Puteri Johor and Puteri Kedah during a naming ceremony held at the end of April at the shipyard, attended by representatives from PLL, the shipyard, Bank of Communications Financial Leasing, China Merchants Energy Shipping, China Merchants Financial Leasing, and "K" Line.
"Puteri" means princess in Malay; "Johor" is the southernmost state of Malaysia, while "Kedah" is located in the northwestern part of peninsular Malaysia.
The delivery of these two new vessels will strengthen PLL's fleet and contribute to the reliable supply of LNG to its customers.
In its Medium-Term Management Plan, published in May 2022, "K" Line has positioned the LNG business as a priority area in its future investments. The company stated that it will continue to respond to the diverse needs of its customers to expand its long-term contracts and meet the growing demand for energy.
