ReeferShip Ltd. Formed

LauritzenCool, Eastwind Transport and Armada Shipping announced the formation of ReeferShip Ltd.. a new marketing company that will identify, pursue, and develop business for refrig- erated ships controlled by Eco Shipping,

Arctic Reefers, and Armada Shipping.

ReeferShip Ltd. is owned equally by its three principals. The company's com- bined fleet stands at more than 50 ves- sels with total capacity of about 20 mil- lion cu. ft.

Vessels in the fleet range in size from 185,000 to 668,000 cu. ft. Arctic

Reefers and ECo Shipping will be kept intact in their present form as pools for large and handy-size refrigerated ves- sels, respectively.

Eastwind is contributing its reefer ves- sels of 400,000 cu. ft. and above to Arc- tic, LauritzenCool is placing its handy- size tonnage under Eco's management, and Armada is through a joint venture with Arctic placing tonnage in both the

Arctic and ECo systems. In addition,

Eastwind has taken a substantial share- holding in Arctic, while LauritzenCool has increased its ownership interest in

ECo.

Finally, ReeferShip vessels from all three participating fleets will be used whenever possible to fill the tonnage requirements of Eastwind Transport and

LauritzenCool.

ReeferShip will operate out of Copen- hagen and New York. Armada's reefer team will relocate to Copenhagen.

ReeferShip will also have access to all of Eastwind's and LauritzenCool's mar- keting and agency offices worldwide.
