Bangladesh's Western Marine Shipyard has booked orders for tankers and an offshore support vessel (OSV) from the UAE.

The Chattogram-based yard's managing director Sakhawat Hossain told the Financial Express that the deal is worth BDT 860m ($10.25m).

"We are building two ocean-going tankers and one OSV for UAE," he added.

They are due for delivery in the next one to two years, he said.
