Wärtsilä Gas Solutions has announced that it will supply the cargo handling systems for three 45,000 metre-cubed gas carrier vessels being built at the Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD) in Korea.
The order was placed by HMD and booked by Wärtsilä in Q1 2025. Two of the ships have been contracted by Singapore and Hong Kong headquartered ship owner/operator Purus, and the third by Pasco Gas, based in Istanbul, Turkey.
Both owners have previously ordered similar vessels fitted with Wärtsilä cargo handling systems. The Wärtsilä equipment is scheduled for delivery to the yard in early 2025.

“Over the past decade, we have equipped more than 15 medium-sized gas carriers built by HMD. We are excited to continue with the latest project and several other ongoing ones.”
