Does any agreement between us and BlueAnchor create any non-disclosure obligations preventing our owner from publicly announcing the deal? 
Write me a short reply back that I can review and send.

You can go ahead and publicly announce the deal. Below are more detailed explanations for your review.

- The Assignment Agreement includes a confidentiality clause covering the assignment of the Shipbuilding Contract.
- The Shipbuilding Contract includes a confidentiality clause protecting all technical information and commercial terms of the Shipbuilding Contract. However, as per the Assignment Agreement, we transferred all of our obligations and rights to the newly established JV. Therefore, the confidentiality clause under the Shipbuilding Contract no longer binds LNG Shipping Inc.
- Ship Management Agreement requires us to keep all non-public information received from BlueAnchor in relation to this agreement confidential. As expressly stated, this obligation is limited to the information we received in connection with the management of BlueLNG JV LLC's carrier vessels. It does not directly cover the parties' deal to set up the new JV.
- There are no other agreements (such as the Joint Venture Agreement and Operating Agreement) that contain any clause on confidentiality and therefore restrict us from publicly announcing the deal.
- Accordingly, we are under no confidentiality obligations preventing us from publicly announcing the deal.
