GE Shipping Sells 2002-Built Gas Carrier 'Jag Vishnu'
G E Shipping has contracted to sell its 2002-built Very Large Gas Carrier, 'Jag Vishnu', for delivery in Q4 FY26. The company's fleet will then consist of 39 vessels. Additionally, G E Shipping is set to purchase two secondhand vessels and sell one Kamsarmax Dry Bulk Carrier, with these transactions also expected in Q4 FY26.
The sale of one vessel and the purchase of two others, along with the sale of another vessel, indicates active fleet management. This could lead to a modernization of the fleet and potentially impact future earnings, hence a medium impact.
The announcement details the sale of an older vessel and the purchase of newer ones as part of fleet management. While the sale itself is a routine transaction, the overall impact on the fleet size and composition is neutral.
The Great Eastern Shipping Company Limited (G E Shipping) has entered into an agreement to sell its 2002-built Very Large Gas Carrier, 'Jag Vishnu', with a capacity of approximately 77,922 cbm.

In addition to this sale, the company has also contracted to purchase one secondhand Very Large Gas Carrier and one secondhand Ultramax Dry Bulk Carrier.
