The Hansa Tankers chemical tanker pool has swelled with five modern ships from Arne Blystad’s company Songa Shipholding and five from Wilbur Ross’ Transport Recovery Fund (TRF).
Hansa chief executive Hans Solberg said all the 19,900-dwt tankers are set to have scrubbers installed.
TradeWinds reported in May that Bjarne Rieber Group, which is a pool member, decided to install scrubbers on seven chemical tankers, which means that the pool now will have at least 17 ships with exhaust gas cleaning systems.
