CMB.Tech Signing charter agreement with Fortescue for NH3 fitted Newcastlemax NewNNewcastlemaxading]

CMB.Tech signed an agreement with the Australian miner Fortescue to charter a new ammonia-powered vessel. The 210k dwt ammonia-powered Newcastlemax will feature a dual fuel engine and is expected to be delivered by the end of 2026. No contract details have been disclosed, but as the Newcastlemax has been bought at risk by CMB a while ago the charter terms are expected to yield appealing IRRs and bring long contract duration. Following the LT charter agreement with MOL announced a few weeks back, CMB.Tech signs yet another LT charter enabling the derisking of its extensive fleet rejuvenation programme in alternative fuel propulsion vessels. As CMB is currently operating a few vessels in the Fortescue spot pool more LT charter signings could follow in the coming years.
