Daehan Shipbuilding has scored an order potentially worth $92m as Greek interests continue to take advantage of low prices and orderbook levels to replenish their fleets with tanker newbuildings.
An official at the South Korean shipyard confirmed that it had signed a contract for one aframax plus an option for a sistership.
“It is true that Daehan has recently signed a newbuilding contract that involved two aframax tankers from a European company,” the official said.
