Teekay proudly celebrated the naming ceremony of the NH3 carrier M/V Kaprijke at the HHIC-Phil Subic Shipyard in the Philippines. This remarkable vessel marks a significant milestone as it becomes the first of eight Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) carriers ever constructed and delivered in the country. The M/V Kaprijke will join the TGP-Exmar Joint Venture fleet, a collaboration that emerged from a strategic agreement formed in December 2012 between Teekay LNG and Exmar, centered on a 50/50 joint venture targeting the LPG Carrier sector, particularly Midsize Gas Carriers. This initiative highlights Teekay LNG and Exmar’s commitment to meeting the rising demand for LPG and Ammonia (NH3), while reinforcing Teekay's established legacy of collaborating with esteemed partners in the shipping industry.
