HD Hyundai Samho has delivered its first-ever Very Large Ammonia Carrier (VLAC), marking another milestone in the growing market for vessels designed to transport low-carbon fuels. The South Korean shipbuilder announced Monday that it handed over the 93,000-cubic-meter Jane Maersk to Danish shipping giant Maersk. The vessel is the first of five VLACs ordered by Maersk in November 2023. Designed to transport both liquefied ammonia and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), the vessel incorporates specialized safety systems to handle ammonia’s highly toxic and corrosive properties. HD Hyundai Samho said the delivery strengthens its position in the emerging market for next-generation, environmentally focused vessels.
