Seatrium wins eighth Karpowership FSRU conversion contract

The project starts in the third quarter of 2026.

Seatrium Limited has won an eighth floating storage regasification unit conversion contract from Karpowership, with work due to start in the third quarter of 2026.

The group said the LNG carrier-to-FSRU conversion is for LNGT Karadeniz, which it described as Karpowership’s first high-capacity FSRU with regasification capacity of up to 600 million standard cubic feet per day.

It said the scope includes installing a regasification module and spread-mooring system, plus integrating cargo handling, LNG offloading, utilities, electrical distribution, and automation and control systems.

The award progresses an earlier letter of intent signed in August 2025 covering three LNG carrier conversions into FSRUs, as well as integration of four new-generation Powerships with an option for two additional units, Seatrium said.

The firm also said it has completed and delivered the FSRU LNGT Powership Oceania to Karpowership, and its track record now stands at 23 FSRU and FSU conversion projects delivered.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
