Dynagas is due to receive a second FSRU from Hudong-Zhonghua, Transgas Force, in April next year. The Greek company currently has a fleet of 10 LNG carriers (LNGCs).

Hudong-Zhonghua, a unit of China State Shipbuilding, secured an order for three 174,000-m3 LNGCs from an undisclosed customer in late June.
