Gas carrier drydocking for Brest

The Bonny Gas Transport-owned, 79,822dwt LNG Sokoto is scheduled to arrive at the yard end of August for maintenance work, including drydocking. The vessel is managed by London-based Shell International Trading & Shipping Company.

Jos Goris, managing director of Damen Shiprepair Brest (formerly Sobrena), says: “We are very pleased with this order and we expect more LNG vessel owners to follow. The yard’s workforce is experienced in repairing LNG vessels and it is good to see this business returning to Brest”.
