Çiçek Shipyard delivers "Frecciamare"
Based Augusta, on the east coast of Sicily, Ciane Anapo is part of the Novella Group, headed by Marco Novella, and specialises in coastal tanker and bunker operations.
84.91 m long and 12.60 m wide "Frecciamare" was completed as "Chem Flower", the first of four identical vessels now being built by Çiçek Shipyard for its associated shipowning company White Tulip Shipping, based in Malta. White Tulip then sold "Chem Flower" to Ciane Anapo shortly after completion, leaving Çiçek to make some minor modifications to meet the new owner's requirements.
Although Ciane Anapo intends using this first vessel for bunkering duties, the four ships are extremely flexible, all being capable of worldwide trading, transporting oil products, chemicals (IMO type II) and vegetable, animal and fish oils. They are classed by Bureau Veritas and constructed to meet Ice B standards.
