Singapore-based tanker operator Hafnia has placed an order for eight medium-range product tankers with Hyundai Heavy Industries in a deal valued at $405 million.
The vessels are scheduled for delivery between the third quarter of 2028 and the second quarter of 2029. Hafnia said the programme will deliver operational scale, consistent performance across the fleet and improved earnings quality.
Chief executive Mikael Skov described the order as a strategic step, securing early delivery positions at a leading shipyard while building on proven, fuel-efficient vessel designs. The new ships are also expected to support the company’s decarbonisation pathway and strengthen its long-term competitiveness.
The order follows recent fleet developments, including the delivery of dual-fuel methanol MR tankers through a joint venture with French shipowner Socatra.
