Spanish multi-modal shipping and logistics major Suardiaz Group, through the company's Suardiaz Energy division, has announced that it has signed an agreement to make the recently acquired vessel RS Onza available to compatriot multi-energy major Moeve S.A. (previously Cepsa).
The RS Onza, recently delivered to Suardiaz in Singapore, is an IMO2 chemical tanker capable of transporting methanol. It will operate in European ports, primarily in Spain, and is already providing services for Moeve.
The incorporation of the RS Onza strengthens our capacity to advance logistics solutions better suited to new fuels. This agreement with SUARDIAZ is another step forward in Moeve’s roadmap to drive the decarbonisation of maritime transport, said Samir Fernandez, Director of Marine Solutions & Trading at Moeve.
Suardiaz Energy operates through two complementary business lines – the Offshore division focusing on the operation of offshore vessels, and a second Tanker division, dedicated to the oil tanker, chemical tankers, and bunker barge operations, with units currently based in Barcelona and Ceuta.
Our agreement with Moeve strengthens our longstanding relationship and is yet another sign of the confidence the energy sector places in us. Our extensive experience in the maritime and bunkering sectors enables us to continue moving forward by delivering more innovative and sustainable solutions, said Juan Riva, CEO of Suardiaz Group.
Further projects are under development, including new units under construction for delivery in 2027 and the design of an LNG bunker vessel.
Suardiaz says that it is committed to “larger and more flexible vessels for the transportation of petroleum-derived products and chemicals, with new fuel handling capacity.”
The RS Onza is equipped with the latest technology for the transport and delivery of new fuels, said Fernando Barreras, Director of Suardiaz Energy.
