A Torm tanker has become the first to ship out ultra low sulphur diesel (ULSD) from Mexico’s big new refinery in Dos Bocas.
The fixing of the 50,000-dwt MR vessel Torm Singapore (built 2011) potentially opens up a new source of demand for these ships.
Analytics firm Kpler said the tanker loaded 300,000 barrels at the Olmeca plant in March, marking a key milestone in Mexico’s efforts to boost domestic refining capacity and reduce import dependency.
