The summer 2015 brought the final breakthrough for chemical tanker carrier Nordic Tankers, as July became the first month after the merger with Herning Shipping that the Copenhagen-based company was able to present black figures on the bottom line, several sources tell ShippingWatch, adding that this trend continued into August as well.

The development thus documents the expectations announced ahead of the summer by the carrier's CEO, Per Sylvester Jensen, in an interview with ShippingWatch.
