AEGEAN BREEZE I

Today is my first day in after the holidays, as it is only 3 degrees outside and still dark I thought I would start the New Year with a tanker I saw in Greece on a very warm day in Summer 2012.

Tanker Aegean Breeze I photographed in Piraeus on 5 June 2012 from my balcony on the Serenade of the Seas. I took the photograph shortly after we had returned to the ship after a full day ashore exploring Athens in a taxi we picked up just outside the docks.


She was built by Leqing Orient in Wenzhou, China as Yard Number ds0206 in 2004 and is 81.53m long with a 12.70m beam and 6.3m draught.

Tank capacity is 2,850m3. 

Powered by a Dalian DY8300ZC (980kW) diesel engine she has a top speed of 11.5 knots.

DWT = 2,747 & GT = 1,823.

She has had a number of names including Hui Long (2004) and Aegean Breeze (2004 - 2006).

She is operated by Aegean Marine Petroleum Network which is an international marine fuel logistics company that markets and physically supplies refined marine fuel and lubricants to ships in port and at sea.

    My interest in ships and the sea started back in 2006 when I worked for a couple of years  on the banks of the River Mersey. I have since been on a couple of cruises around the Med and in the Far East and have started to take more interest in researching and photographing some of the ships and other vessels seen on my travels.
