Neste sells crude oil tanker Tempera

Neste will sell the crude oil vessel Tempera to Perenco. The sale is based on Neste's decision to divest its shipping operations, announced in fall 2013. The ship will be handed over to its new owner in summer 2016. Until that time, OSM Ship Management Finland will continue as the Tempera's ship management company.

Tempera is not one of the vessels specified as critical for Finland's supply security. The tankers and harbor tugs previously owned by Neste which are included in this category are nowadays Finnish-owned jointly by the National Emergency Supply Agency and the Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company.
