Stream Tankers AS ("Stream") has entered into an agreement with BW Tankers Limited ("BW"), whereby BW will acquire 10 chemical tankers from Stream. This includes the sale of M/T Stream Luna (19.999 dwt./built 2010 at Shitanoe) and M/T Stream Mia (19.702 dwt./built 2008 at Fukuoka) to BW.
According to the agreement, BW will also acquire the eight newbuilding contracts that Stream has entered into with Fukuoka Shipbuilding Co. Ltd. and Shitanoe Shipbuilding Co. Ltd.
