Eastern Pacific Shipping has stacked up its product tanker orderbook with dual-fuel LR2 vessels.
The Singapore-based company, which is said to have set its sights on controlling a “50-vessel product fleet”, has four LR2 and 16 MR tankers on the water.
Eastern Pacific has commissioned China’s Xiamen Shipbuilding to build four 113,600-dwt product carriers to be delivered in 2028.
Sources following the shipowner said it signed the contract several weeks ago but the deal was never reported.
