Nanjing Tanker makes ethylene carrier debut

Nanjing Tanker makes ethylene carrier debut

Nanjing: Nanjing Tanker Corporation's first ethylene carrier successfully completed its maiden voyage late last week. It is the first Chinese owned ethylene chemical carrier. The tanker Peng Shun, originally named Marianna, was purchased by CSC Nanjing Tanker Corporation's subsidiary Shanghai Changshi Shipping and managed by its wholly-owned subsidiary Nanjing Yangyang Chemical Transport and Trading Shanghai Changshi, the first professional ethylene transport company in China. Li Wanjin, general manager of the company said, due to high operational standards and management requirements, ethylene transportation would be challenging business. [16/11/10]
