South Korean shipbuilder Samsung Heavy Industries will build two new liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers as part of a deal revealed on Monday.
Samsung Heavy said in a stock exchange filing it would build the vessels for an Oceania-based owner.
The yard did not reveal the name of the company behind the order.
Moreover, the contract has a price tag of 460.9 billion won ($392.8 million), the shipbuilder said.
Samsung Heavy added it would deliver the ships by September 2024.
Including the newest contract, the shipbuilder won orders worth $7.1 billion so far this year for 54 ships, reaching 78 percent of its annual target.
Samsung Heavy has last month revealed an order from an Oceania-based owner for one 180,000-cbm LNG carrier.
Brokers reported that Denmark’s Celsius Shipping is behind this order and the firm now has six new vessels on order at the yard.
