Tanker Evros for Irving Oil

 The tanker Evros arrived in Halifax from Amsterdam on September 15 with the latest cargo of refined product for Irving Oil.


The ship was built in 2005 by STX, Jinhae, South Korea with tonnages of 30,020 gt, 47,120 dwt. Flying the Bahamas flag, owners are listed  as Empire Navigation Ltd, and managers as Sun Enterprises Ltd. The latter is one of the operating arms of the Stavros G. Livanos companies, and the funnel carries the traditional "Lambda" (Greek letter "L") for Livanos. This ship's sister Strymon also called at Irving Oil in June 6, 2019.


The red "Λ" and blue border marks Livanos ships. The name Evros is from a river that flows through Bulgaria and forms the land border between Greece and Turkey. It has also been the scene of mass refugee migrations pushed by the Turkish government and is now heavily fortified. Nearby Alexandroupoli is also an important naval port for NATO.
