Sberbank is trying to recover RUB 13bn ($205m) from Turkish tanker owner Palmali's Russian subsidiary in a bankruptcy case.
But the unit of the Mubariz Mansimov-controlled shipping company has vowed to revive its fortunes as the group announced new charters.
The Kommersant daily reported that the Russian bank is pursuing unpaid loans taken out by Palmali to refinance other debt and buy vessels.
