The US did build a series of 16 LNG carriers during the 1970s through to 1980 at three domestic shipyards — General Dynamics, Newport News and Avondale — with each yard using different tank designs.
Some of these went for international trading and were reflagged out of the US fleet. Eight in the so-called “zodiac fleet” of Burmah Gas Transport lifted cargoes between Indonesia and Japan during their early years.

There was talk that three of these vessels — two of which are owned by South Korea’s Sinokor Maritime and one that has since been demolished — could be reflagged back in, but this has not occurred. (Copyright)

Another pair of old steam turbine LNG carrier are available in the market:

Could it be these two? If so, will they end up under US-flag too?
