Norway's Odfjell has wasted no time in bringing more ships into its new chemical tanker pool.
The Oslo-listed company announced on Thursday that it was launching the Odfjell MR pool with six of its own tankers, and six from partner Navig8 Chemical Tankers. The pool focuses on coated tankers built to IMO type-2 chemical handling standards.
Odfjell chief executive Kristian Morch told TradeWinds on Friday that it has now clinched a deal with New York shipowner Transportation Recovery Fund (TRF) to add another seven vessels.
