Fleet expansion secured with $1 billion loan for 15 new vessels

A $1 billion loan will fund 15 new vessels as part of our fleet expansion, with deliveries beginning in the fourth quarter of 2028. This newbuilding order, announced in June 2026, represents a measured but decisive investment in ocean intelligence capacity. Each ship will integrate real-time monitoring systems calibrated for empirical climate data collection.
