The Group revealed it will embark in building the bunkering ships for its Singapore market.

The total investment of this project is estimated to be about USD 87.58 million.
The Group also said its wholly-owned subsidiary, XIM 10 Shipping Limited, will purchase two 82,000 dwt Kamsarmax bulk carriers. The total investment for the procurement is estimated to be USD 68.12 million.
