Japan relies for most of its energy supply on petroleum imports. Naturally, seaborne transportation by means of tankers in the forms of crude oil, refined petroleum products and LPG is very important.
Nissho Shipping has been offering transport services over a period of 50 years with abundant experiences and excellent management system for operating VLCC(very large crude oil carriers with cargo capacity for over 200,000 metric tons), MR-type product carriers(medium-range product carriers with capacity ranging from 35,000 through 50,000 metric tons) and LPG carriers(liquefied petroleum gas carriers), responding to a wide variety of customers' needs.
As the world focuses on marine environmental protection, Nissho Shipping spearheaded its efforts toward this move and has already completed transition of its entire fleet to double-hull tankers.
