Main characteristics
The design of the “Sea Stallion” type, this most advanced 36,000 dwt double-hull bulk carrier, is based on the “Seahorse 35” type being in operation successfully since 2011. Grontmij, Denmark, in cooperation with Ariston Navigation Corp., Greece, have been able to further optimize the “Seahorse 35” design with specific focus on:
- Safety
- Loading flexibility
- Economical and efficient operation
- Environmental friendliness and maintenance
- Latest regulations for bulk carriers
