Flex LNG transfers first vessel to in-house management company

Flex LNG, the company controlled by billionaire John Fredriksen and an emerging player in the LNG shipping business, has taken over management of its first LNG carrier, the Flex Enterprise.

The company said through its social media channels that, on November 23, Flex Enterprise was the first ship under the management of Flex LNG Fleet Management which received its Document of Compliance (DOC) last month.

During the next months, the remaining Flex LNG ships on the water will be transferred to its new in-house management company, Flex LNG said.

Flex Enterprise is a 174,400-cbm LNG carrier built by the South Korean shipyard Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) in 2018. The vessel also features MEGI propulsion technology.
