Brightoil Petroleum has seen two of its crude tankers were arrested in Singapore.

The 319,800-dwt Brightoil Grace (built 2013) and the 107,525-dwt Brightoil Lion (built 2010) were detained by mortgagee bank Credit Suisse, court documents show.

Both Hong Kong-flagged ships were detained by Singapore’s Admiralty sheriff on instructions from local law firm Joseph Tan Jude Benny LLP.
