Hanjin receives its first tanker
Hanjin Shipping received its first tanker today, at a naming ceremony held at Hyundai Heavy Industries in Ulsan, Korea. Following the Hanjin tradition of naming ships after cities around the world, the company’s first tanker is named Ras Tanura, the major oil port of Saudi Arabia. Hanjin Ras Tanura is a 300,000 ton Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) with a double-hull design based on Fuel Oil Tank Protection (FOTP). The ship is also equipped with a fuel-efficient and highly economic engine. The new tanker joins Hanjin’s fleet of more than 200 container ships, bulk and LNG carriers. Quelle: eyefortransport |
