The National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia (Bahri) said that its 80 percent-owned subsidiary, National Chemical Carriers, signed on Wednesday a memorandum of agreement to buy five second-hand medium range (MR) ships from South Korea’s Scorpio Tankers Inc. for $166.5 million.
The medium-sized tankers will be delivered between February 1 and June 30, 2016, the oil shipper added in a statement to Tadawul.
Bahri said that it expects the financial impact from the deal to reflect on results in Q2-2016 and Q3-2016.
