Vessel is scheduled to be out of service from May 10.



Lukoil-Bunker LLC reports that its tanker vessel Lilaste is due to be out of service to undergo scheduled ship repairs in Murmansk next month.

The 1634-deadweight-tonne (dwt), 101-metre-long bunkering tanker is scheduled to enter dry dock on May 10, with repair work expected to be completed by July.
