United Arab Emirates shipowner CPG Bunkering has bought a new tanker to expand operations in Mozambique.

The company said it has signed a deal with Maputo Port Development Company (MPDC) to extend its partnership in ship fuel supply at the terminal.

CPG has sent its 3,800-dwt CPG Alma (built 2005) to Maputo to join the 3,800-dwt sister ship CPG Alix (built 2009).
