Oil boost for ”Belokamenka”
Oil reloading with the ”Belokamenka” supertanker operating as floating terminal ship in the Kola Bay the first six months of the year increase threefold.
The turnover of the ship-to-ship reloading of oil increased 210 percent in the first half of the year, Murman.ru reports with reference to Seanews.ru. The 360,000 ton tanker “Belokamenka” is owned by Rosneft and permanently located in the Kola Bay to serve the oil industry. The increase is spurred by Lukoil, which is boosting oil exports from its new Varandey terminal in the Pechora Sea. Only in June, a total of 1,3 million tons of oil was reloaded to and from the tanker, Murman.ru reports.
