Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (BOM:532921, NSE:ADANIPORTS) secured a 10-year contract to provide marine services for Argentina's first liquefied natural gas export project, according to a Monday press release.
The contract was awarded to Adani Harbour International FZCO, a step-down subsidiary of Adani Ports, through a consortium with Argentina-based Meridian Group, following a tender conducted by Southern Energy.
The consortium will provide tugboat operations for LNG carriers, offshore logistics and supply support, and crew transfer services for the Southern Energy floating LNG project in Argentina.
The project is expected to involve an investment of about $70 million and will be supported by four tugboats, an anchor-handling tug supply vessel, and a crew boat.
