"GAS Entec is taking charge of Engineering Basic/Detail design of LNG Cargo & Bunkering Handling System with supplying related main equipment and commissioning service as well," explained Gas Entec.
"This has remarkable meaning that small Korean Engineering firm has supplied main engineering service and equipment on the world first small scale membrane LNG bunkering vessel project in the USA."

In November, Ship & Bunker reported that the delivery of the 2,200 cbm LNG bunker barge to CME had been delayed until early 2017.
