An Idan Ofer-connected company is suing Oilmar Shipping & Chartering and Valero over alleged unpaid bills.

Tuesday, the registered owner for an Eastern Pacific Shipping-controlled 157,781-dwt Silverway (built 2017), filed suit in Maryland federal court alleging the Emirati company owes it $1.04m, primarily for unpaid demurrage fees and heating costs.

The unpaid bills stem from a charter that began October 2018.
