Thun Tankers takes delivery of second L-class vessel from Avic Dingheng, China
Thun Tankers says it has taken delivery of the second L-class, Thun London, in China. Just like her sister ship, Thun Lidkoping, she will enter the Gothia Tanker Alliance network. This L-class vessel is the second in a series of five resource efficient, high quality tankers built by Avic Dingheng Shipbuilding Ltd in China.
The L-class tanker has been designed and developed in-house, using the Erik Thun group’s long experience of building sustainable, high quality vessels. Focus on environmental care, new regulations and customers’ needs has been key in the design and building process of this vessel type. The new tanker will enter into the Gothia Tanker Alliance network with crewing and technical management by MF Shipping Group.
