Maersk Tankers, a unit of Danish conglomerate A.P. Moller-Maersk, has placed a $300 million order for nine medium-range tankers from Samsung Heavy Industries' Ningbo shipyard in China.

The nine vessels, whose flag states have yet to be determined, will join the Maersk Tankers fleet during 2017 and 2018, it said on Friday.
