Nakilat’s Q-flex LNG Carrier Al Ghashamiya has recently achieved a significant safety milestone of over 10 years without lost time injury (LTI) or Total Recordable Case (TRC), equivalent to nearly 3 million safe man-hours. 

Al Ghashamiya is one of 18 vessels being operated and managed in-house by Nakilat, with the fleet comprising of 14 LNG and four LPG carriers.

Earlier in April, another Nakilat-managed vessel, LPG carrier Bu Sidra achieved 7 years LTI-free with 1.6 million safe man-hours. Several other vessels within the managed-fleet are expected to achieve similar safety milestones in the coming months.



With the advent of fuel transition, digitalization, AI and autonomy, innovation in vessel design and operation proceeds at unprecedented speed.
