Subsidiaries of the Navigator Amon joint venture entered into a $121.8 million senior secured term loan with a syndicate of international lenders. This financing is specifically earmarked for the delivery of two 51,350 cbm ammonia-fuelled liquefied ammonia carriers currently under construction in China.
