The Hercules Comet has a carrying capacity of just shy of 8,000 dwt and is the supplier’s fourth delivery tanker in the region.

The vessel is currently sailing under the flag of Gibraltar. It was built in 2019 by the Singapore-based Pearl Majestic Shipping and was previously named Pearl Majestic.

Another 8,000 dwt bunker tanker operated by Peninsula, the Hercules Star, has been delivering VLSFO and LSMGO stems in Fujairah since October 2022. The supplier has a bunker license to deliver HSFO, LSMGO and VLSFO grades in the region.
