South Korea’s Polaris Shipping has become the latest shipowner to join Navig8’s Alpha8 Pool.

The company’s two 2018-built Aframax tankers have been added to the pool, Navig8 said.

The newbuildings in question are the 129,918 cbm Polar Ace and Polar Bright.

Being built at Korean shipyard Daehan Shipbuilding, the 115,802 dwt vessels will fly the Marshall Islands flag.

Polar Ace and Polar Bright are scheduled for delivery in February and August 2018, respectively.

Including the two newbuilds, Navig8’s Alpha8 Pool currently comprises eighteen tankers.
