As for 2026, Adnoc L&S is doubling down on LNG to fuel its global trade ambitions: The UAE energy giant’s logistics arm is looking to accelerate its tanker fleet expansion plans in 2026 — with moves to award as many as six LNG new build contracts to South Korean shipbuilders Samsung Heavy Industries and Hanwha Ocean, Adnoc L&S CEO Abdulkareem Al Masabi told Bloomberg. No investment ticket has been disclosed yet.
14 going on 20: The new order will come in addition to 14 LNG carriers already contracted to support the UAE’s export projects. Adnoc L&S will uptake delivery of two tankers this year –– buidling on four already in its fleet –– earmarked to transport gas from Abu Dhabi’s export terminal at Das Island.
All part of a bigger play: Adnoc’s international investment arm XRG has been on anacquisition spree — onboarding stakes in gas fields and export projects abroad while also inking supply agreements.
