John Fredriksen’s Frontline 2012 has returned to New Times Shipbuilding for up to 10 additional capesize bulkers and products tankers.

Informed sources say Frontline 2012’s latest order spree involves six capesizes and a contract for two firm long-range (LR) products tankers, with options for two more.

A source familiar with the deal confirms the contracts. He says the Jingjiang-based yard is set to deliver the capesizes in 2015 and 2016.
