BP Shipping has added six new state-of-the-art LNG vessels to its fleet. This marks the culmination of its latest 4.6 – 5 million hour, US$1.3 billion ship building project.
The six vessels have been named: British Partner, British Achiever, British Contributor, British Listener, British Mentor and British Sponsor.
Each ship can carry a cargo of LNG equivalent in volume to 69 Olympic sized swimming pools, and emit 20% less CO2 emissions when compared to industry benchmarks.
