Dongying Port to accommodate more Aframax tankers

摘要

Two berths will be built in Dongying Port in China's Shandong province to accommodate more Aframax oil tankers. Shandong is home to the majority of China's privately owned, or "teapot" refineries and these enterprises are stepping up crude oil imports. China's Ministry of Transport gave the green light to Dongying Port's application to construct the berths, each of which can accommodate oil tankers of up to 100,000 dwt. In June 2019, Dongying Port called for tenders to seek suitable contractors.
