Eastern Pacific Shipping (EPS) has continued its ordering spree by firming up a newbuilding deal for two suezmax tankers at Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding.
Last month, TradeWinds reported the companies were in talks over the 158,000-dwt ships that run on conventional fuel.
Chinese media Eworldship reported the Singapore-headquartered owner eventually signed up for the pair last Friday, the first newbuilding order Waigaoqiao has secured since the yard resumed production following an extended Lunar New Year holiday.
