Greece's Kyklades Maritime has joined the growing list of shipowners looking to order dual-fuel VLCCs in South Korea.

The Alafouzos family-controlled company is said to be in talks with its favourite South Korean shipbuilder, Hyundai Heavy Industries, for two vessels plus two options.

Shipbuilding market sources said discussions for the tankers, which will be able to run on LNG and conventional fuels, are at an advanced stage.
