Stena Poseidon delivered

The product tanker ?Stena Poseidon? has been delivered from Brodosplit Shipyard in Split. This 75,000 DWT Panamax tanker is jointly owned by Concordia Maritime and Neste Oil on a 50-50 basis and Neste Oil has chartered the vessel for 10 years.

The 228.40 metre long newbuilding has been built to Ice Class 1 A specifications, which means that it is able to sail at a speed of five knots in a channel with 1.0 metre thick ice. It provides an all-round view from the bridge together with an extra large cargo intake and adjustable propellers for greater manoeuvrability when sailing through ice.

The Stena Poseidon was named at Brodosplit Shipyard in Split at the end of last year together with her sister Palva, which is also is jointly owned by Concordia Maritime and Neste Oil on a 50-50 basis. The Palva has been chartered for 10 years and is expected to be delivered in about a month. The two vessels will operate in part in the Baltic Sea and have Finland as their starting point for voyages to North America.
