Sanmar Shipping looking to add eight ships

India’s Sanmar Shipping has announced plans to add eight ships to take its fleet to 20. 

The shipowner, a subsidiary of chemical company Chemplast Sanmar, recently opened an office in Singapore. 

As of today the Sanmar fleet is composed of 10 product tankers and two LPG carriers, all flagged in India.

The shipowner traces its roots back to 1994. Over the years it has changed its focus from dry bulk to tankers.
