RasGas II has named its eighth LNG ship, Simaisma, at a ceremony at the South Korean yard of the Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering Company.

Simaisma is the second vessel to be delivered from the shipyard to the Maran Gas Maritime and Qatar Gas Transport Company consortium. With a cargo carrying capacity of 145,700 cubic metre she will, like her sister ship Umm Bab, be one of the largest ships in RasGas service to date. The vessel is scheduled for delivery from the shipyard on 1 September 2006.

RasGas will charter the ship for 20 years to deliver LNG from its existing and future facilities at Ras Laffan Industrial City to its growing portfolio of customers around the world
