from Japanese interests.Sources tell Splash that Orient Shipping has paid in the region of $15.5m for the ship. This is the second time the ship was reported sold this year. VesselsValue’s sales register shows that the ship was registered fixed, then failed, for $14.7m in mid-January, almost a million less than it has been reported sold for now.
Orient Shipping Rotterdam was established in 1982 under the wings of the Van Weelde Shipping Group.
