Enesel back at Daehan for suezmaxes

Making the most of cheap prices on offer Greek owner Enesel is back at Korean yard Daehan Shipbuilding for more tankers. Brokers report the Lemos family controlled owner has signed for two firm 158,000 dwt suezmaxes. The contract comes with two options and delivery dates are spread over 2020 and 2021.

In August this year, as part of its ongoing fleet rejuvenation program, Enesel ordered two aframaxes at the same yard. The company currently has another four VLCCs on order at Hyundai Heavy Industries.
