Stena and OljOla team up on methanol bunker tanker
The vessel is designed to carry chemicals as per IMO Type II, including methanol and various bio-fuels. The cargo will be transported in coated cargo tanks over five complete segregations and discharged by screw type cargo pumps.
It will have two main engines and three diesel generators, all equipped with SCR systems for Tier III compliance.
The project is a joint venture involving Donsö-based Swedish shipowner OljOla Shipping as owner with full technical management, Stena Oil as commercial operator and Stena Teknik as project and newbuilding management.
The newbuilding will be a top performer in the Stena Oil fleet, and with its ability to lift chemical cargoes, it will allow Stena Oil to expand its portfolio with alternative fuel types, such as methanol.
