LNG-ready vessels have a ship design that has been prepared or “ready” for using LNG as a fuel in the future, while LNG-fuelled ones can consume LNG as fuel now.

The 50,000-dwt chemical/product MR tanker, M/T Akrisios, is the last of six LNG-ready ships to be delivered to Capital Ship Management. It is also wind-assist and shore power-ready.

The vessel has been built by Hyundai Vietnam Shipyard.
