Capital Clean Energy Carriers takes delivery of LNG carrier Alcaios I
Capital Clean Energy Carriers Corp. (NASDAQ: CCEC) announced the delivery of the liquefied natural gas carrier Alcaios I on July 31, 2026.
The vessel, built by HD Hyundai Samho Co., Ltd. with a capacity of 174,000 cubic meters, has begun an 18-month index-linked time charter following its delivery.
The acquisition was funded using cash on hand and $170.0 million in proceeds raised through the refinancing of two existing sale and leaseback facilities for LNG carriers Aristos I and Aristarchos. The Alcaios I was added as additional security under the refinanced facilities, which carry a 10-year term.
The Alcaios I is the 15th latest-generation LNG carrier delivered to the company. CCEC's under-construction fleet includes six additional latest-generation LNG carriers scheduled for delivery between the first quarter of 2027 and the first quarter of 2029.
