Welcoming Trans Sea and Trans Fjord

Seatrans Chemical Tankers welcomes the new vessels Trans Sea and Trans Fjord to their fleet. With complete integration into SCT’s operations, the vessels are now operating in international waters, catering to our global customer base.

Both vessels have underwent traditional naming ceremonies in Japan, a gesture aimed to bring good fortune for vessel and crew. Shortly after these ceremonies, Trans Sea and Trans Fjord quickly transitioned to operational status, ready to contribute to the international chemical trade industry.

The vessels are 12,500 deadweight advanced stainless steel chemical carriers with 18 segregations, have thermal oil heating systems installed and are fitted to carry propylene oxide. With a flexible cargo tank figuration, these vessels are perfect for the parcel trade between Northern Europe and the Mediterranean.

Aligning with our commitment to the environment and safety, the chemical tankers are built to the highest environmental, fuel-efficiency, and safety standards, complying with IMO NOx Tier 3 and Sox emission requirements and following the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) Phase 3 compliance level.

Welcome to the fleet!

New builds

It is with great pleasure we announce that Seatrans has entered into a long-term time charter agreement with purchase options for two newbuildings from Kitanihon Shipbuilding Co Ltd.

The new vessels are expected to be delivered in first and second half of 2023. The project is the result of almost one year of close cooperation between Japanese investors and Seatrans.

The chemical tankers will be built to the highest environmental, fuel-efficiency, and safety standards
in line with the company’s commitment to operating responsibly. The vessels will be in compliance
with IMO NOx Tier 3 and Sox emission requirements and follow the upcoming Energy Efficiency
Design Index (EEDI) Phase 3 compliance level.

The vessels are 12,500 deadweight advanced stainless steel chemical carriers with 18 segregations,
have thermal oil heating system installed and are fitted to carry propylene oxide. With a flexible
cargo tank figuration, these vessels will be perfect for our parcel trade between Northern Europe
and the Mediterranean.

With these additions, Seatrans Chemical Tankers are taking important steps to renew our fleet and
remain long-term committed to our existing and new customers.

Rotorsail update

Last year, Sea-Cargo installed two rotor sails and a battery pack on the roro vessel SC Connector. This innovative project is groundbreaking in the shipping industry due to the size of the rotor sails in relation to the ship size, and the transformation towards greener maritime operations.

“The rotor sails on SC Connector use available renewable energy. Wind forces are used directly for propulsion without the conversion losses associated with other energy carriers. The project is a success and we see a 25% reduction of greenhouse emissions.”

Johan Christian Hvide, CTO, Seatrans

“The goal of this project has been to design more environmentally friendly vessels by combining several existing technologies. On some stretches we combine the sails with electric power from batteries, and with favourable wind conditions we can sail without the use of the main engine. As a combination, it is a fantastic solution. The energy we use is 100% renewable and clean.”
