US-listed Safe Bulkers said on Monday it installed its first scrubber and that it is sticking to a plan to do the same on half of its fleet.
The 89,000-dwt bulker Martine (built 2009) became the first Safe Bulkers unit to be equipped with the open-loop, U-type, Alfa Laval PureSOx scrubber, the company said in a statement. Installation took place at the Cosco Guangzhou shipyard.
