The Stena MAX concept

Our Flagships

These innovative, in-house designed wide-body tankers can carry 30% more cargo than traditional ships with the same draft. The unique safety approach features a full double hull, two engine rooms with full fire and water integrity plus double propulsion and manoeuvring systems, including engines, shafts, generators, steering gears, rudders, propellers and control systems.

Stena Primorsk in Stockholm. She is the fourth vessel in the P-MAX series.

So far, we have designed and built three vessel types in accordance with the MAX concept: V-MAX, P-MAX and C-MAX. On top of this, we are also developing the B-MAX, which is designed to carry about 200,000 tons of oil out of the draft-restricted Baltic Sea with maximum economy and safety.

E-MAXair

The Stena E-MAXair is an important step in our common ambition to create more sustainable shipping. Concern for the environment, in combination with extremely competitive transport economy and a maximum of safety, are the entrance tickets to new markets and new business opportunities.

V-MAX

The Stena Vision and the Stena Victory are the first VLCCs specifically designed and built to transport large oil cargoes through narrow and shallow waterways where their intrinsic manoeuvrability and relatively shallow draft provide considerable safety margins as well as high cargo capacity.

P-MAX

The P-MAX series are MR vessels with numerous features for minimizing the risk of incidents and accidents. Double hull, strict corrosion control, two engine rooms with fire and water integrity, redundant systems for propulsion are vital safeguards for safety. Add manoeuvrability and an integrated bridge layout to facilitate safe navigation in narrow waters.

C-MAX

The Stena C-MAX is a direct conceptual spin-off from the Stena V-MAX design. Both vessels are designed for maximum optimized safety – and manoeuvrability. Both are very shallow draft with higher cargo intake compared to the industry standard. This enables charterers to substantially reduce their transportation cost per barrel.

B-MAX (new vessel under development)

We are now developing the B-MAX, which is specially designed for the Baltic Sea. The vessel will be suitable for the safe and economical carriage of crude from ports in the environmentally sensitive Baltic Sea. It will have a shallow draft as well as double safety and navigation functions.
