Beks Ship Management, a Turkish company that recently made its debut in tankers, has made good on assurances that it would expand further in the sector.

An updated fleet list on its website reveals the Istanbul-based company has boosted its tanker fleet to three units after deals to acquire an aframax and an MR product tanker.

This is in line with statements by the company’s principal Ali Bekmezci, who told TradeWinds in August that he was making arrangements to buy those ship types.
