Fratelli Cosulich Announced a significant order for two advanced methanol-ready chemical bunkering tankers Fratelli Cosulich 2024-07-10 10:17

Fratelli Cosulich successfully concluded a significant investment, by placing an order for two advanced methanol-ready chemical bunkering tankers with Taizhou Maple Leaf Shipbuilding Co., Ltd.   

The vessels, two 7,999 DWT IMO2 chemical bunkering tankers, are engineered to transport a variety of cargoes, such as fuel oil, biofuels, and methanol, thereby enhancing their utility and market potential. This move underscores Fratelli Cosulich Group’s dedication to advancing a sustainable and efficient maritime industry, while also elevating fleet operational excellence. 

The order includes options for two other additional units in the future.  The first of these methanol-ready vessels is set for delivery in the first half of 2026. 

Their twin small-scale LNG bunker vessels, Alice Cosulich and Paolina Cosulich, are now fully operational, meeting the growing demand from LNG-fueled vessels. In addition, Fratelli Cosulich is profoundly diversifying their fleet because they believe in a multi-fuel future. 

Vessels like Marta Cosulich, their first IMO2 chemical bunker vessel capable of delivering biofuel and methanol, and the anticipated 2025 delivery of our second IMO2 chemical bunker vessel, and the first methanol fueled, demonstrate Group’s commitment to this vision. 

This investment marks another milestone in the Group’s commitment to a sustainable and efficient maritime industry and enhanced fleet operational excellence. Their investment in alternative fuels not only meets regulatory requirements but also exemplifies industry leadership.
