Broström takes delivery of the BRO GAZELLE
The 7,600 dwt product tanker BRO GAZELLE has been delivered from the Dutch
shipyard Ferus Smit. The vessel is the ninth Broström vessels in a series
of ten being built in partnership with Erik Thun AB.
The BRO GAZELLE, and her sister vessels are specifically designed for
North European short sea tanker shipping where Broström is the market
leader. Short sea tanker shipping demands tight co-operation between
vessel operators and their customers within the oil industry. The
vessels often do numerous and short journeys within the customers’
internal logistics systems with high demand on efficient loading and
discharging.
The BRO GAZELLE which is built by ice class 1A is manned and technically
operated from the Netherlands and is flying the Dutch flag.
