Taiwanese state-owned oil company CPC Corp. has ordered a pair of oil barges at Singaporean shipbuilder Triyards.
The contract is priced at NTD 716m ($21.82m).
The vessels are scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2018. They will be used in Taiwanese waters to supply bunkers to ships.
Triyards’ chief executive officer Chan Eng Yew, in a statement to the Singapore exchange, said: “This attests to our continued efforts to diversify our orderbook beyond the traditional O&G sector.
