Marine fuel supplier Peninsula on Tuesday (11 April) said it has added supply tanker Hercules Comet to its bunker delivery vessel fleet in Fujairah to boost its physical operations in the UAE.

“In order to strengthen our physical operations in Fujairah, Peninsula is happy to announce the addition of the Hercules Comet to the local fleet,” it said in a social media post. 

“This marks our fourth supply tanker in the region, offering supply efficiency across all grades of fuel.”

According to MarineTraffic, the vessel is currently sailing under the Gibraltar flag and was built four years ago in 2019. The Hercules Comet has a carrying capacity of 7,999 dwt.

Manifold Times previously reported it has completed its first physical bunker fuel supply operation in Fujairah.

Hercules Star, a 8,000 dwt tanker, reportedly supplied a delivery of VLSFO to the bulk carrier, Evoikos Theo. 

Manifold Times in late September reported Peninsula commencing physical operations in the Port of Fujairah.
