Major Ballast Water Management Order for Suezmax

OceanSaver announced signing a major contract with Hyundai Heavy Inudstries in Korea for the delivery of two ballast water management (BWM) systems for Gungen, a leading Turkish owner and operator of high-spec SUEZMAX crude-oil tankers. Valued at $4m, the Gungen BWM agreement follows OceanSaver’s six VLCC BWM system deal with Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Company just four weeks ago and now escalates OceanSaver’s total order book up to $32m. The Gungen contract covers the supply of two 2,500 m3/h BWM systems to be located inside the Zone 0 area of the tanker pump room. Zone 0 represents the strictest gas hazardous class as gas or vapor may be present.
