According to a statement by Alpha Gas, this delivery adds another LNG carrier to its fleet of wholly owned vessels under its in-house commercial and technical management.

She is propelled with XDF engines, has a cargo carrying capacity of 174,000 cbm, and equipped with the latest technologies including a high capacity and highly efficient full reliquefaction system, air lubrication system (ALS), two shaft generators (PTOs) and air resistance shield.
Energy Fortitude was delivered from the yard straight into her first employment (long-term charter) with a Far East-based charterer.
