MidOcean Energy, an LNG player formed and managed by EIG Global Energy Partners (EIG), has secured another investment. This new investment will enable Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (NYK) to expand its LNG footprint.

The investment is through Diamond Gas MidOcean (DGMO), a company established by Mitsubishi Corporation in 2023. NYK plans to participate in the investment and will subscribe for all shares issued in DGMO's third-party allotment.

By leveraging its expertise in LNG shipping, NYK aims to contribute to MidOcean Energy's LNG value chain development. The collaboration's focus is on LNG marine transportation.
