BW Gas' LPG fleet attracts buyer interest

摘要

The possible sale of the LPG carrier business of BW Gas, which is managed from Norway but domiciled in Bermuda, could trigger consolidation in the LNG sector as well, a shipping analyst told Fairplay. "There have previously been rumours that Golar LNG would be interested in the LNG fleet of BW Gas, and a combination could be more likely after a potential sale of the LPG fleet," a shipping analyst at FearnleyrnFonds in Oslo said. BW Gas received conditional price indications for its LPG fleet from an undisclosed number of interested buyers earlier this week.
