Post-delivery, the vessel has immediately commenced a 12-year charter with the principal LNG shipping entity of Japan’s Jera Co., Inc. (JERA).

The vessel is the second of seven vessels we will be taking delivery of through the third quarter of 2021, representing approximately US$145 million of incremental EBITDA per annum once fully delivered.
I want to thank our crew, site team and shore staff as well as our partners at Samsung for their hard work and dedication in delivering the GasLog Wales safely and on budget, despite the many challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.”
