PRISCO ALCOR launched at Hyundai shipyard
Second Suezmax tanker for Russian shipping firm

On July 27th 2007 the second Suezmax tanker of 166000 DWT was launched at Hyundai Heavy Industries Shipyard in South Korea for PRISCO, the Russian shipping firm.

The vessel was named PRISCO ALCOR

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, says PRISCO, at each step of the construction ensures 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.
