US-listed Navigator Holdings has acquired a 17,000 cbm liquefied ethylene gas carrier Navigator Solar under a 60/40 joint venture with Hong Kong-incorporated Greater Bay Gas.
The joint venture has previously purchased a similar vessel in September 2022. A further three vessels, 22,000 cbm ethylene gas carriers, are expected to be acquired during this year. 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.

It currently operates the fleet of five modern semi-pressurized and semi-refrigerated ethylene and ethane gas carriers that are expected to be acquired by the Joint Venture.
