The open hatch type bulk carriers will be delivered from 31 December 2018 to 11 September 2020. The shipbuilder for the woodpulp carriers was not disclosed.
Pan Ocean said the vessels investments are needed after it entered into consecutive voyage contracts with Fibria, a forestry company and producer of eucalyptus pulp.
