Sembcorp Marine records highest number of LNG vessel repairs and upgrades globally

SEMBCORP Marine said on Tuesday it has topped the global list for the highest number of LNG (liquefied natural gas) vessel repair and upgrade projects in a single year.

The company tops the list for the fourth year running, securing a total of 34 such projects in the global market.

Sembcorp Marine's head of repairs and upgrades Wong Lee Lin said the record stems from relationships with long-term partners and customers.

Last year, Sembcorp Marine repaired and upgraded 32 LNG vessels at its Admiralty and Tuas Boulevard shipyards, up from 27 in 2013.
