A Turkish shipbuilder that turned owner when the 2008 financial crash led to newbuildings at the yard being cancelled is poised to grow its fleet to at least 13 chemical tankers in the next couple of years.
Haken Sen’s Med Marine, which owns Eregli Shipyard, already has six ice-class, 1A, 8,400-dwt chemical tankers with YMN Tanker Marine Management, founded by the group in 2012.
