More VLCC to very large ore carriers (VLOC) conversion vessels in the Polaris fleet appear set for repair in China, according to automatic identification system data.
The whole Polaris 1990s-built fleet of 18 VLCC-to-VLOC conversions has been undergoing safety checks by classification societies — the Korean Register of Shipping and Lloyd's Register, while flag state the Marshall Islands has also been inspecting the ships.
