Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co., one of South Korea's leading shipbuilders, said Wednesday that it has clinched a US$160 million deal to build two 84,000-ton LNG carriers from an Asian shipper. The shipper, whose name was withheld due to a confidentiality agreement, is one of the two companies who previously placed combined orders of $640 million for eight very large gas carriers (VLGCs) with Daewoo Shipbuilding, the South Korean company said.
