Njord Shipping has acquired its first containership as it continues to expand its fleet.
The Norwegian shipowner has teamed up with Oslo-listed MPC Containerships to buy the 2,490-teu Norfolk Trader (built 2002).
Njord chief executive Henrik Ness confirms the purchase of the vessel, which comes with a charter party attached.
The ship, which has been renamed AS Pamira, had been reported sold to an undisclosed buyer last year for $7.8m
