Flex LNG expect to take redelivery of Flex Constellation during the second quarter of 2024
Flex LNG Ltd. has received notice that the charterer of Flex Constellation, a trading house, has decided not to utilize its extension option. Flex Constellation was fixed on a three-year Time Charter on May 17, 2021, where the charterer had the option to extend the period by up to three years. Hence, Flex LNG expect to take redelivery of the ship during the second quarter of 2024.
For 2024, the charter coverage for Flex LNG is 95% following the redelivery of Flex Constellation. The Flex Constellation has been on a Time Charter with a fixed rate of $80,000 per day, in line with the Time Charter Equivalent guidance for our fleet in 2023. The term rates for one to ten years charters are currently being quoted at $90-100,000 per day according to most brokers.
Flex LNG is a shipping company focused on the growing market for Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). The fleet consists of thirteen LNG carriers on the water. These modern ships offer significant improvements in fuel efficiency and thus also carbon footprint compared to the older steam and four-stroke propelled ships.
