Stena Oil, Stena Teknik and OljOla are entering into a new joint venture agreement to secure an ongoing new building project for a 2000 DWT Oil- and Chemical Tanker in Turkey.
The new Oil Chemical Tanker will be responsible for bunker supply in the North European region. The project is a joint venture involving OljOla Shipping as owner with full technical management, Stena Oil as commercial operator and Stena Teknik as project and new building management.
The vessel design and specification has been upgraded to match and exceed the operational requirements for the North European region.
Besides being highly flexible and with environmental performance in mind, the vessel is designed to carry chemicals as per IMO Type II, including methanol and various bio-fuels.
The vessel is a twin screw oil- and chemical tanker with two main engines and three diesel generators, all equipped with SCRs for Tier III compliance. The cargo will be transported in coated cargo tanks over five complete segregations and discharged by screw type cargo pumps.
The vessel is designed by Kuzey and being built by GENKA Shipbuilding in Tuzla, Turkey.
The close cooperation allows us to advance in the market and to continue to develop purpose-built tankers, providing efficient and environmentally friendly transportation and bunker operations
