The vessel, Seaspan Baker, is expected to be delivered in 2025. The first two vessels in the series, Seaspan Garibaldi and Seaspan Lions, are slated to be delivered later this year.

Upon delivery, Seaspan Baker will serve the Long Beach container ship market and will join Seaspan Lions in providing LNG bunkering services for vessels along the West Coast of North America.

The vessels will be able to deliver LNG ship-to-ship and operate in short-sea and coastal areas.
