We advised BW Group Limited, one of the world’s leading maritime groups in the tanker, gas and offshore sector, on the US$152,250,000 Japanese Operating Lease financing in respect of a 174,000 cbm LNG carrier, “BW Helios”.
This ground-breaking transaction represents the first JOLCO involving a joint venture between ICBC Leasing and China Merchants Energy Shipping, with the vessels in question commissioned for a long-term contract of affreightment with Brazilian conglomerate Vale.
Named after the late LNG trading pioneer Luis Lesmes, “BW Lesmes” is a versatile vessel, equipped with technology enabling the lowest possible emissions for an LNG carrier.
“We are extremely pleased to have worked on this transaction, which represents a trend towards more structured financings involving new players in the Asian maritime markets such as investment firms.”
The vessels will be bareboat chartered upon delivery to Seaspan Corporation, a NYSE-listed container management company, and then sub-chartered to a leading global container shipping company.
