ASRY launches two new bunker vessels

These are for Bapco Refining.

The Arab Shipbuilding and Repair Yard Company (ASRY) has launched two bunker vessels for Bapco Energies' subsidiary Bapco Refining.

During the formal launch, the two vessels were lowered into the water for the first time, marking completion of a main stage of the project.

The launch is part of a wider project to build and hand over two self-propelled fuel vessels for Bapco Refining.

ASRY Vice President for Commercial Affairs Sauvir Sarkar said the “launch starts the final phase, which includes full commissioning, tests and sea trials ahead of handover, with performance quality meeting international standards and BAPCO Refining’s highest marine transportation standards.”
