A flood of LNG carrier orders and dollar-denominated payments skewed towards delivery have helped South Korea's Daewoo shipyard, (now known as the world's second largest shipbuilder) still under workout, craft one of the country's most dramatic corporate turnarounds. "It is like dreaming a really good dream," said a high level official at Daewoo Shipbuilding. "We are now nearly monopolizing the global market for LNG carriers and benefiting from the recent weak won better than our rivals because most payments are made at delivery," he said. In 2000, Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering raked in orders for six LNG carriers - two each from Exmar of Belgium, Tapias of Spain and Bergesen of Norway - out of a total 14 orders placed worldwide.
