Ardmore Shipping Corporation took delivery of the newbuilding Ardmore Seawolf on August 13, 2015.
The 49,999 deadweight tonne, eco-design IMO 3 product and chemical tanker was constructed at the SPP Shipbuilding Co., Ltd Sacheon Shipyard in Korea, and is the third in a series of four SPP newbuildings scheduled to deliver to Ardmore in 2015.
Upon delivery, the Ardmore Seawolf immediately contributed to growth in earnings and cashflow by commencing her initial employment in the Ardmore fleet. The delivery brings the company fleet to a total to 22 vessels.
“As our newbuilding program approaches completion with just two ships remaining, our revenue days are set to increase by 70% from their 2014 level. We wish to thank SPP Shipbuilding for its continued hard work and professionalism in building and delivering these high-quality, state-of-the-art vessels,” Anthony Gurnee, CEO of Ardmore, commented.
