CM Lemos orders up to four suezmaxes at Hyundai Samho

Greek shipowner CM Lemos has returned to Hyundai Heavy Industries for suezmax tanker newbuildings, ending a four-month hiatus for large tanker orders at the South Korean shipbuilding group.

The Michael Lemos-controlled company is said to be behind an order for up to four 158,000-dwt crude carriers disclosed by HHI last week. They are to be built at group shipyard Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries.
