Klaveness took delivery of the MV Bass from New Yangzi Shipyard in China. The MV Bass is the seventh of in total eight contracted CLEANBU combination carriers. MV Bass is scheduled to load her first cargo of clean petroleum products towards the end of April.
Like her sister vessels, the MV Bass has been named after a fish/sea creature, honouring KCC’s commitment to clean oceans and environmentally friendly shipping.
The CLEANBUs are unique vessels both in terms of design, their unprecedented environmental performance, operational and technical efficiency. These vessels have up to 40% lower CO2 emissions per ton mile transported cargo compared to standard vessels, in line with IMO’s 2030 targets for shipping.
With the delivery of the MV Bass, KCC will operate a fleet of 16 combination carriers.
