The LNG tanker Ramelia has been delivered to Rederi AB Älvtank, becoming the sixth of eight vessels ordered in the Gothia Tanker Alliance series.
The vessels are built on a design in which FKAB Marine design – in cooperation with the owners Furetank, Älvtank and Thun Tankers, and together with Avic Dingheng Shipbuilding Co. Ltd. – has been involved from the first sketch, all the way to detail design.
The Ramelia’s design is that of an ice class 1A environmental friendly tanker, equipped with batteries and dual fuel engines for LNG operation.
The vessel is capable of carrying 16 300 DWT on design draught and 18 000 DWT on scantling draught.
