**Greek Venergy Expands Fleet Rapidly with Chinese Shipyards** Greek shipowner Venergy Maritime has placed orders for 10 new vessels across three major CSSC-affiliated Chinese shipyards within two days, significantly expanding its fleet. The orders include four Suezmax crude tankers—two plus two options at Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding and two firm
157,000 DWT tankers at Guangzhou Shipyard International—as well as four feeder containerships at Huangpu Wenchong, following earlier exercised options. Venergy, backed by V Group, represents a new type of Greek shipping company rooted in marine environmental infrastructure and port services rather than traditional family shipping. Its fleet expansion strategy is progressing from MR tankers to LR2/Aframax product tankers, then to Suezmax crude tankers, alongside launching a feeder container segment through OceanV Maritime. This rapid and diversified orderbook highlights Venergy’s strong commitment to Chinese shipyards and signals a growing partnership between the new-generation Greek owner and China’s shipbuilding industry.
