Release Details

Jerry Kalogiratos, CEO of Capital Clean Energy Carriers Corp. (NASDAQ: CCEC), was among the speakers at the Capital Link Maritime conference in New York. He offered a commanding outlook on LNG and carbon capture shipping, positioning CCEC at the forefront of an evolving maritime landscape increasingly shaped by clean energy demands and technological shifts.

“We own and operate the largest U.S.-listed fleet of two-stroke LNG carriers,” Kalogiratos said. “That’s 12 vessels on the water and six more on the way.” Backed by $2.5 billion in contracted revenue and a seven-year charter backlog, CCEC is betting heavily on “energy transition cargoes”—ranging from LNG and LPG to ammonia and liquid CO₂.

Yet perhaps more significant was Kalogiratos’ focus on carbon capture and storage (CCUS) transport, an emerging niche in the shipping world. CCEC owns four of the world’s first liquid CO₂ carriers—handy-sized, multi-gas vessels that Kalogiratos described as “a big part of a very small order book.” These vessels are expected to play a critical role in decarbonization, particularly in Europe, where projects like Norway’s Northern Lights and the EU-backed Stella Maris are ramping up.
