The Joint Venture announced the purchase of the first and second of five vessels on December 20, 2022 and January 17, 2023, respectively.

As previously announced, all five vessels will continue to be commercially managed under the Luna Pool collaboration arrangement, and technical management will be provided by the third-party technical manager, PG Shipmanagement Pte. Ltd. of Singapore.
