PRISCO MIZAR, the first of the class was christened recently.

Latest PRISCO tanker launched at Hyundai Heavy shipyard
And in two months PRISCO ALCOR will join the fleet.



Yesterday 11th July the latest tanker for Russian shipping company PRISCO was launched at Hyundai Heavy Industries' shipyard in South Korea.

She is the second Suezmax tanker for the company from HHI, following on from the christening of PRISCO MIZAR as reported in Shipping Times recently.

Just two months remain before delivery of the vessel. During this period HHI will lead completion of the tanker’s outfit and carry out sea trials of the newbuilding.

PRISCO yard-team’s specialists provide inspections of the assembling of the tanker and acceptance of the equipment. Such careful control at each step of the construction, say PRISCO, can ensure the high quality of the vessel and consequently her further safe operation.

When “PRISCO ALCOR” is delivered the aggregate deadweight of the company’s fleet will total 1.2 min tons.
