On July 7, Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding (SWS) signed and delivered the second 114,000 DWT Aframax product tanker “KASTOS” built for Greece’s Oceangold.
Representatives from Greece’s Oceangold, China State Shipbuilding Corporation and Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding attended and witnessed the signing of the delivery.
The “KASTOS” is the latest generation of Aframax tankers independently developed and designed by Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding.
The vessel has significant features such as green, environmental protection, energy saving, safety and economy. The EEDI index verified by the actual ship has reached the requirements of the third phase of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in 2025 ahead of schedule. At the same time, the nitrogen oxide emissions meet the Tier III requirements, and the sulfur oxide emissions meet the emission requirements, which is deeply favored by customers.
