M.t."Ireland" under construction by Shipyard Ferus Smit B.V.(Yn:435) at Westerbroek on 9 May 2016.

m.v. "Ireland" is a dedicated cement carrier build for the joint venture JT cement, in which Erik Thun AB cooperates with KG Jebsen Cement from Norway. The vessel will be one of the first ever dry cargo vessels with an LNG fuelled propulsion system. This unique design incorporates a pressurised LNG tank positioned in the foreship. While sailing on LNG, the vessel will meet the most stringent emission criteria, as well as new norms that might be in place in futures for environmental sensitive areas.(source: Ferus Smit.)
