Another in the long line of Korean built product tankers, Orion (ex Overseas Orion to 2009) arrived this afternoon and tied up at Imperial Oil dock 4.

The 30,068 gross / 51,128 dwt ship came from the STX Offshore and Shipbuilding yard in Jinhae, in 2006. There is nothing remarkable about this ship, but it did arrive in ballast. see Comment- the ship is carrying furnace oil - but not a lot of it I would say.
Does this mean that Imperial Oil's storage (and possibly blending) operation is now also in the export business?
