Concordia Maritime has taken delivery of the product tanker Stena Premium, which will soon enter into a 3-year charter contract with Glencore subsidiary ST Shipping.
The Stena Premium is the tenth and last P-MAX tanker in the so-called P-MAX series ordered from the Croatian shipyard Brodosplit.
The tankers in the P-MAX series have all been signed to charters of between three and ten years from delivery.
The fleet operates in different geographical markets all over the world, transporting both light and heavy petroleum products as well as crude oil.
The first P-MAX tanker was delivered in 2005 from Brodosplit Shipyard. The tankers have double hulls, two engine rooms with full water and fire integrity and two separate propulsion systems. Superior maneuverability and an integrated bridge layout facilitate safe navigation in narrow channels.
Technical data for the P-MAX tankers:
Length: 183 m
breadth: 40 m
draft (design): 11.3 m
deadweight: 65,200 tons.
