Crude oil shipments head off

It was a quiet week at the Sullom Voe harbour with only three vessels calling.

On Saturday the Sarpen left for Rotterdam with a cargo of 98,302 tonnes of crude. Monday saw two tankers leave, the Katja which left for Rotterdam with a cargo of 43,296 tonnes and the Alfa Britannia, which sailed to Tranmere with 56,190 tonnes.

The Katja arrived again and sailed on Tuesday, again for Rotterdam, this time with 35,466 tonnes.

There were no imports and no ship to ship transfers.
