Fratelli Cosulich has taken delivery of the Anna Cosulich, marking the latest addition to the group’s fleet expansion programme.

The methanol-ready IMO II bunker tanker was delivered at Taizhou Maple Leaf Shipyard in China on 20 May.

Preparations are now being made for its maiden voyage to Singapore, where it will support Cosulich Marine Energy's bunkering operations in the port.

As previously reported, Anna Cosulich was launched in a ceremony on 4 February as the first of four methanol-ready bunker tankers.

The vessel's name continues the Cosulich family tradition of naming vessels after family members, reflecting what the company describes as a connection to its origins.
