A Dutch coastal shipping company has reached an agreement to increase its fleet strength by grabbing a 2011 built tanker.
What happened?
The Dutch coastal shipping company Thun Tankers has reached an agreement to strengthen its fleet by purchasing the 2011 built tanker ‘Wisby Teak’. The development will also strengthen the relationship between Thun Tankers and Wisby Tankers.
The 7,000 DWT capacity vessel has been included to the Gothia Tanker Alliance with immediate effect. The unit, which is owned by Swedish shipping company Wisby Tankers, will be commercially managed by Thun Tankers.
Maximize delivery
The tanker equipped with increased maneuverability has been tailor designed to maximize deliveries into restricted ports. With a length of 99.9 meters, the vessel is able to reach smaller load and discharge installations.
Joakim Lund, CCO, Thun Tankers, said: “With Wisby Teak in our fleet we can further increase our client offering with another modern high quality tanker that is able to reach and maximize cargo intake in ports and terminals with restricted accessibility”.
Jonas Engström, Managing Director, Wisby Tankers, added: “With this third added tanker we do not only deepen our good cooperation further with Thun Tankers and the rest of the partners in the Gothia Tanker Alliance, we can also widen our joint offering towards our customers”.
