The 7,500-CEU vessel, Ocean Explorer, is capable of operating on LNG as well as conventional marine fuels.

The first vessel in the series, Ocean Breeze, was delivered in July last year, while the third ship, Ocean Legacy, has moved from drydock to berth.

However, Sallaum Lines has not disclosed further details, including the deployment plans for these vessels and the delivery timeline for the remaining ships.
