Total has chartered four LNG-fuelled aframax tanker newbuildings worth about $240m from two shipowners, extending its dual-fuel fleet as the French energy major pursues its emissions-reduction strategy.
Total revealed on Wednesday that it is chartering two 110,000-dwt vessels capable of carrying crude oil or refined products from Norway’s Viken Shipping.
The oil company did not give details on where the Viken ships are being ordered.
