Odfjell brings additional ships under Norwegian flag
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Odfjell has now brought M/T Bow Brasilia (5, 870 DWT/built 1997) and a
newbuilding from Korea into the Norwegian International Ship Register (NIS). The
M/T Bow Brasilia and the 51,000 DWT newbuilding are two out of five vessels that
Odfjell has planned to bring into NIS registration in 2010.
Odfjell took delivery of the newbuilding on 28 April from SLS Shipbuilding Co
Ltd, Korea. The change of flag on Bow Brasilia is due to relocation of
chartering, operation and ship management from Germany to Bergen.
Odfjell has today 25 vessels registered in NIS, and is the largest employer of
Norwegian mariners under NIS flag.
- If we see the shipping industry getting more stable conditions in the future,
we will consider increasing our number of vessels in NIS, says Jan A. Hammer,
President/CEO Odfjell SE.
