Dutch LNG project announced


Dutch firms join forces to develop solutions for the LNG transportation market.

Netherlands-based Veka Group and Deen Shipping have joined forces to develop their business interests in the small-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) market under the name VEKA DEEN LNG.

The joint project was announced during the second day of the ‘Construction & Shipping Industry’ trade fair in Gorinchem, Netherlands. Both companies signed a collaboration agreement and revealed that the first project would be an innovative ship design for the first inland LNG carrier.

The new tanker has a length of 90 metres and will be able to transport 2,250 cubic meters of LNG.

With their joint experience in shipbuilding, shipping and LNG transport, both companies said they foresee a 'very promising' collaboration and are looking forward to the construction of their first inland LNG carrier.

Veka was the first Netherlands-based shipyard to deliver a seagoing LNG carrier with LNG propulsion (Pioneer Knutsen). Deen Shipping has developed, and operates, the world’s first LNG-propelled inland tanker (Argonon).
