    The Stena Panamax is a 72,750 DWT product and crude tanker that has several design features making it more flexible and efficient than a standard Panamax tanker. It has its deck structure above the cargo tanks, allowing for smoother tanks that are easier to clean without blind spots or residue pockets. This allows it to more quickly and with less risk of contamination switch between carrying clean and dirty products. Additionally, it has a more powerful engine, enabling it to sail faster and save time during voyages.

    The rewards of saving time and
    safeguarding against contamination
    of the cargo are substantial
    – Money saved and an increase in goodwill

    A standard Panamax tanker has the deck structure below


    deck. This creates corners and blind spots which are
    difficult to clean. Even after cleaning is completed, you
    basically have a tanker for crude and dirty products, with
    the ability to carry clean products.
    However, the Stena Panamax has turned the tables.
    Our tank structure is placed on the deck leaving the
    epoxy coated cargo tanks smooth and completely free of
    obstacles. There are no blind spots or any pockets for cargo
    residues to be trapped in. This makes the tanks very easy
    to clean. The change from dirty to clean products can be
    made in a considerably shorter time than on a standard
    vessel, while minimizing the risk of contamination. The
    tanks can thus be prepared en route to the next load
    area with a minimum or no loss of time.
    The Stena Panamax is a product tanker ready
    to carry clean as well as dirty products at short notice.
    Flexibility when it comes to cargo grades is further
    enhanced by a feature usually only found in clean-
    product tankers – a corrugated centreline bulkhead in
    the cargo tanks.
    Additionally, the boiler capacity has been increased
    for improved cargo heating and tank cleaning.

    The Stena Panamax is fitted with a more


    powerful main engine than normal for
    this class of ship. The vessel is capable
    to sail in ballast at 16 knots and loaded
    passages at 15.5 knots. This is conside-
    rably faster than most of the panamax
    tankers now trading. A faster ship saves
    time, and time is money!
    In this double hull tanker, all
    tanks containing cargo, fuel
    oil and contaminated water
    have double hull protection
    or void space between their
    boundaries and the hull.
    Cargo tanks are fitted with
    corrugated center line and
    transverse bulkheads.

    The hull is
    designed for
    fatigue life of
    40 years world-
    wide operation.

    Soot contamination is a constant


    problem when carrying clean cargoes
    on board vessels fitted with a traditio-
    nal flue gas system. In order to avoid
    this, the Stena Panamax is equipped
    with both inert gas generator and
    flue gas system. The combination is a
    priceless tool when changing between
    clean and dirty products.
    If you look at the main particulars, the Stena

    Panamax is a true Panamax tanker.

    The outer dimensions are maximized to fit

    the Panama canal.

    However, the Stena Panamax differs in many

    respects from the standard product tanker.

    At short notice, it is ready to carry clean as

    well as dirty products. It offers superior safe-

    guards against contamination of clean cargo.

    And it is noticeably faster.

    And the bottom line – the most important

    difference between the Stena Panamax and

    a standard Panamax tanker is the money you

    don’t have to spend.

    Oil should always travel first class!
