Global marine fuel supplier and trading firm Fratelli Cosulich has taken delivery of an 8,585 DWT methanol-ready bunker tanker built by China's Taizhou Maple Leaf Shipyard.
The vessel Carlotta Cosulich is the third of four sister ships being delivered under Fratelli Cosulich Marine Energy's fleet expansion programme, following Anna Cosulich and Lucia Cosulich, it said in an announcement on Wednesday.
The bunker tanker was launched in August.
The tanker is designed to support a range of bunkering operations and future fuel requirements.
Its features include MarineLine cargo tank coating, single-point mooring capability and a 5-tonne crane.
The delivery brings the group closer to completing its four-vessel programme. The tanker will undergo final preparations before entering service.
