Latsco Shipping of Greece is making a big push in the LR2 tanker segment with an order for a series of newbuildings at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard.
The Latsis group, which is already listed with seven such vessels, is set to boost its fleet with a deal for four more, TradeWinds understands.
Shipbuilding sources said Latsco is behind the 115,000-dwt LR2 newbuilding quartet that HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering announced on 1 March.
