HTM’s new Ultra-Spec tanker “Hercules Angelica” to load FAME in Malaysia on maiden voyage
Vessel combines diesel-electric propulsion and advanced vessel technology with the flexibility to transport and supply both conventional and alternative bunker fuels.
Hercules Tanker Management (HTM) on Tuesday (10 November) announced that Hercules Angelica has joined HTM’s Ultra-Spec Series of next-generation tankers and is commencing its maiden commercial voyage.
Delivered in China on 3 November, the company said Hercules Angelica marks another step forward in HTM’s fleet renewal programme, bringing further modern, efficient and future-ready tonnage into the fleet.
“Like her sister vessels, she combines diesel-electric propulsion and advanced vessel technology with the flexibility to transport and supply both conventional and alternative marine fuels,” the company said in a social media post.
Hercules Angelica is now proceeding to Pasir Gudang, Malaysia, where she is scheduled to load FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Esters) before heading west towards the UK/ARA region for discharge. Her first commercial employment puts the versatility of the Ultra-Spec platform into operation from the outset.
