SinOceanic, the Oslo-based and Chinese-owned boxship owner, has boosted its fleet again with a secondhand purchase — only a week after taking delivery of the 9,400-teu newbuilding MSC Guilia (built 2017) from Jinhai Heavy Industries.

SinOceanic chief executive Jan Haakon Pettersen confirms that the Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries-built, 8,533-teu Lloyd Parsifal (built 2006) has been bought by SinOceanic's    Bermuda registered holding company.
