Wärtsilä’s cargo handling systems and LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) fuel supply systems have been selected for a new medium gas carrier being built at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard for Turkish ship owner Pasco Gas.

The order in connection with the construction of 45,000 cbm capacity medium gas carrier was placed by HMD and booked by Wärtsilä in Q4 2023. The 45,000 m3 capacity vessel was ordered as an option following an earlier newbuild contract signed in February 2023. The Wärtsilä scope of supply is the same for both ships. HMD is a key customer of Wärtsilä, and the two companies have cooperated on several newbuild projects.
