NAZAN

The NAZAN is a double-hull chemical/products tanker with a deadweight tonnage (DWT) of 4,607 tonnes and a length overall (LOA) of 114.4 meters. Built in 2006, it is designed for the transportation of liquid cargoes, ensuring compliance with MARPOL regulations. Its operational profile suggests suitability for regional trade routes, particularly in areas with limited draft restrictions.

As the current AIS data shows the vessel is heading to TRTUZLA and has an estimated time of arrival (ETA) on September 18, it is likely engaged in loading or discharging operations. The draft and current speed data are unknown; however, a known course of 56.8° indicates it is en route towards its destination, which is indicative of active trade.

The NAZAN’s deadweight capacity positions it favorably in niche markets requiring smaller tankers capable of accessing ports with draft limitations. Given its age, brokers should consider potential impacts on charter rates due to maintenance and regulatory compliance costs. The vessel's trading status indicates it is actively engaged in the market, which can be leveraged for short-term charter opportunities.

With a gross tonnage of 2,971 and net tonnage of 939, the NAZAN's specifications suggest a balance of cargo capacity and operational efficiency. The geared drive propulsion system may enhance maneuverability and reduce port time. However, missing engine specifications such as total power and fuel type limit the assessment of potential operational costs and efficiency.
