A single order for an LR2 newbuilding has surfaced, placed by a Greek company with a predilection for Japanese-built tonnage.
Alberta Shipmanagement, an outfit founded three years ago by Nicholas Inglessis, revealed on its website that it placed such an order with Sumitomo Heavy Industries of Japan.
The fleet list on Alberta’s website features a lone 115,000-dwt aframax/LR2 unit under construction at the Far Eastern builder.
