Daehan Shipbuilding is poised to win up to three suezmax tankers worth about $235m from Greece’s Tsakos Energy Navigation (TEN).
Shipbuilding players said the New York-listed unit of the Tsakos group has commissioned the South Korean shipyard to build the 158,000-dwt DP2s.
The deal is for one firm vessel plus two options.
“The shipbuilding contract will be signing imminently,” said a shipbuilding player.
