RN-Bunker LLC, the bunkering subsidiary of Russian energy giant Rosneft, has added a new bunkering tanker, RN Olimp, at port Tuapse, Russian news site PortNews IAA reports.

The vessel has a cargo capacity of about 4,800 tonnes and maximum fuel supply capacity of 800 cubic meters per hour.

The tanker will operate in Black Sea Basin seaports.

Rosneft, which conducts bunkering activity through RN-Bunker and Rosneft Marine, has long-term contracts with foreign ship owners Maersk Line, CMA CGM, SEIC, and Exxon Neftgas Ltd.

Earlier this fall, Rosneft signed a deal to sell $5.4 billion in oil, including 840,000 tonnes of fuel oil from Tuapse, to BP Plc.
