Idan Ofer’s Eastern Pacific Shipping has turned to South Korea’s Hyundai Heavy Industries for talks on a further tranche of newbuildings, TradeWinds understands.
The diversified shipping company is said to be finalising an order for up to four dual-fuel MR tankers with the group's Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD). The deal would be for two firm newbuildings for delivery in late 2021, plus two optional units.
