Picture of the day: Arctic Aurora near Magellan Strait

Dynagas posted an image of the 155,000 cubic meters Arctic Aurora,  sailing in South Atlantic Ocean near the Magellan Strait.

The vessel is currently operating under a time charter with Norway’s Statoil with an initial term of five years that expires in July 2018. Statoil has the right to extend the charter for consecutive additional one-year periods following the initial charter period.

The ice class liquefied natural gas carrier was built in 2013 by Hyundai Heavy Industries of South Korea.
