Swedish tanker shipping company Donsötank has initiated construction on its second LNG dual-fuel chemical tanker at China’s Wuhu Shipyard, marking a key milestone in its fleet expansion. The vessel, scheduled for delivery in spring 2026, is part of the company’s broader initiative to enhance operational efficiency and sustainability in shipping. With three vessels currently on order for delivery in Q3 2025, Q1 2026, and Q3 2027, Donsötank’s investment in advanced shipbuilding demonstrates its focus on aligning with evolving environmental regulations while leading innovation in maritime transport.

The vessel, designed for reduced environmental impact, integrates cutting-edge technologies, including dual-fuel propulsion supporting LNG, LBG, and diesel, a 500 kWh battery pack, shore power connectivity, and a waste heat recovery system. Cargo tanks with specialized coatings will enable the transport of emerging commodities such as bioproducts and biofuels, underscoring the ship’s versatility.Constructed with the proven blueprint of its predecessors, Prospero and Pacifico, the tanker will have a deadweight of 22,500 metric tons and a cargo capacity of 27,800 cubic meters, with a length of 167 meters and a beam of 26.5 meters.
