More than these, the partnership is about trust and commitment between our two companies. We thus look forward to a long and successful partnership with Sembawang Shipyard."

Partnering with GasLog LNG Services Ltd. will not only increase our market share of LNG repairs/upgrading business but will also enhance our capabilities level as a world-class shipyard for LNG carriers' repairs and upgrades. We are confident that our long-term partnership will deliver visible mutual benefits and continuous improvement to both companies."
