GE Shipping augments its Dry Bulk fleet - acquires a modern Supramax

Great Eastern Shipping Company Ltd has announced that the Company has contracted to buy a modern Supramax dry bulk carrier. The 2001 built ship, of about 52,179 dwt. is expected to join the Company's fleet during Q3 FY 2007-08.

The Company's new building order book comprises 5 Product tankers (1 MR and 4 LR1 product tankers aggregating 0.33 mn dwt) to be delivered in the next 2 years. Additionally, the Company has also contracted to buy 2 second hand modern Double Hull Suezmax Crude Carriers, both to be delivered in Q2 FY 2007-08.

The stock closed the day at Rs.334, down by Rs.2.40 or 0.71%. The stock hit an intraday high of Rs.341.75 and low of Rs.331.55. The total traded quantity was 72235 compared to 2 week average of 204775.
