Hunger for newbuildings continues unabated at Evalend Shipping of Greece.

The Kriton Lendoudis-led company has 21 vessels worth more than $2.1bn on order and is said to have added two more very large ammonia carriers to the tally.

Shipbuilding sources said Evalend is the company behind a $242m order for a pair of VLACs announced by South Korea’s HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (HD KSOE).
