Angelicoussis Group CEO Maria Angelicoussis, Deputy CEO Sveinung J. S. Støhle, CFO Andrew Papachristodoulou and Maran Gas (MGM) General Manager Despoina Moustaka, MGM Executive Vice President and Head of Technical Andreas Spertos and MGM LNG Commercial Director Jason Bikos joined executives from Samsung Heavy Industries and Total Energies at Geoje Island Shipyard in South Korea earlier this month to celebrate the naming of our two new LNG carriers, the Maran Gas Nice and the Maran Gas Antibes.

The two Bureau Veritas classified vessels incorporate an environmentally friendly design with innovative solutions, including air lubrication, shaft generators, an LNG sub-cooler and a new propulsion engine type that reduces the methane slip.

The “Nice” and “Antibes” names represent the historical ties between Greece and France, mirroring the strong relationship between the Angelicoussis Group and charterer TotalEnergies.

We thank Helle Kristoffersen, President Asia and Member of the Executive Committee at TotalEnergies, and Laetitia Valençon, Managing Director at TotalEnergies Gas & Power Asia, for christening these two great vessels into a life of many safe and successful voyages.
