We are very pleased to report that OSM Ship Management AS took over full management of the tanker «MT Mastera», the 17th of September, while the vessel was lying safely at the inner anchorage of Porvoo, Finland. The vessel was handed over from OSM Finland to OSM Norway (Arendal) with the change of flag and crew.
MT Mastera is an Aframax crude oil tanker. She and her sister ship, Tempera, were the first ships to utilize the double acting tanker (DAT) concept in which the vessel is designed to travel ahead in open water and astern in severe ice conditions. The icebreaking tanker transports crude oil year-round from the Russian oil terminal in Primorsk to Neste Oil refineries in Porvoo and Naantali in Finland.
We appreciate the good team effort given by OSM Finland to make a smooth transfer. Congratulations to the Master and his crew, together with Stian Hagevik Heggeland and Grzegorz Roman Nakielski on the successful takeover.
We welcome MT Mastera and we wish her many safe travels!
