DHT Holdings (DHT) announced the signing of an agreement with Hanwha Ocean for the construction of a new Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC). The vessel's delivery is scheduled for August 2028.
The vessel will be a twin of the two Hanwha units the company received in the first quarter of 2026. It will be built to high specifications and will offer superior profitability thanks to efficient fuel consumption, reduced emissions, and large cargo capacity.
Svein Moxnes Harfjeld, President and CEO of DHT Holdings, commented, "We are very pleased with the two new vessels delivered by Hanwha earlier this year and look forward to adding another vessel to our Antelope Class series thanks to this early delivery provided by Hanwha."
"This order reflects our continued commitment to maintaining an efficient and high-quality fleet to serve our customers, while generating long-term value for our shareholders," the executive added.
The project aligns with DHT's capital allocation strategy and is financed by cash flow from operations, available liquidity, and projected mortgage debt.
