Expansion at Viktor Lenac

Croatia?s Viktor Lenac has entered into an agreement to purchase another floating dock, increasing capacity at its yard in Rijeka.

The aframax floating dock will be much larger than the yard?s two existing docks, taking it into new markets. The 60,000 tlc dock currently measures 246m over the blocks x 42m between wing walls, but the yard may lengthen it by 20m and widen it by 5m to allow it to lift suezmax tonnage before putting it into operation towards the end of the year.

New steel fabrication facilities are also planned to meet demand from the conversion and offshore markets.
