Saudi's Bahri Signs $1 Billion Deal for Nine Oil Tankers

Saudi Arabia's Bahri, the National Shipping Company, has entered into a significant deal worth nearly $1 billion to acquire nine new oil tankers. This expansion is part of Bahri's strategy to strengthen its position as a global leader in maritime logistics and shipping.

The contract was signed with an undisclosed shipbuilding company, marking a major step for Bahri in expanding its oil transportation capabilities. The new tankers are expected to enhance the company's ability to transport crude oil efficiently across international markets, meeting the growing global demand for energy.

Bahri's CEO stated that the acquisition aligns with the company's vision of becoming a global leader in maritime transport. The new tankers, equipped with advanced technology, will improve the company's operational efficiency and sustainability, reducing the environmental impact of its fleet.

The oil tankers are expected to be delivered in phases over the next few years, with the first expected to be operational by mid-2025. This expansion not only reinforces Bahri's fleet but also strengthens Saudi Arabia's position as a dominant player in the global oil market.

With this deal, Bahri aims to cater to the rising demand for oil transportation, particularly from the Middle East to Asia and other parts of the world, further solidifying its status as a key player in the international shipping industry.
