Turkey’s Yasa Shipping is said to be switching its focus to tanker newbuildings, having spent the past two years expanding its dry bulk fleet with new bulk carriers.
Shipbuilding sources said Yasa has struck a deal with Singapore-listed Yangzijiang Shipbuilding for four MR tankers to be delivered in 2026.
The crush for product tankers comes with the current orderbook for MRs at 6.4%
