The Eitzen Group’s Danish-based chemical tanker company Christiania Shipping is expanding its fleet further by taking a Japanese-owned six-year-old stainless steel carrier on long-term bareboat charter.
The Usuki Shipyard-built, 12,600-dwt Sun Gaia (built 2015), which will be renamed Sigaia Theresa, is part of Christiania’s strategy of expanding and renewing the company’s fleet.
The tanker is on bareboat charter from Skokuyu Tanker of Japan in a deal brokered by Maersk Broker.
