The vessel, built in 2003, is a pressurized liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) tanker with 11,028 cubic meters (cbm) of capacity. The vessel was time-chartered back to Vitol for an initial period of three years.

Following the delivery of this LPG tanker, MC Shipping controls or has commitments to a fleet of 23 LPG vessels ranging from 3,000cbm to 77,000cbm capacity.

Tony Crawford, CEO of MC Shipping, said: We are pleased to add the Keswick to our fleet. The vessel fits well with our strategic and financial goals and builds on our aim of expanding our relationship with key customers.
