With an ambitious newbuilding project currently in development involving 20 new vessels across almost all categories NYSE listed company Tsakos Energy Navigation held the Naming and Delivery Ceremony of the MR Product oil/Chemical tanker H.N. 1521 – M/T “DELOS T” and the Naming Ceremony of our H.N.1522 - MT "DION", which took place on January 12th, 2026.
The vessels' sponsors were:
M/T "DELOS T": Ms. Corina Lazarou, P.A. to Dr. Nikolas P. Tsakos, TEN Ltd.
M/T "DION": Ms. Elina Papageorgiou, President Greece and Cyprus, Lloyd's Register of Shipping.
Both vessels were constructed at Jiangsu Shipbuilding Group, incorporating the latest design innovations, the highest environmental standards, and advanced technical specifications to meet the highest operational requirements of our charterers. As part of a broader strategic newbuilding programme, these additions underscore the Tsakos Group’s continued commitment to sustainable growth, strategic fleet renewal, and the continuous enhancement of the environmental performance.
The vessels will sail under the Marshall Islands Flag and are classed with Lloyd’s Register.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the newbuilding team and all supporting teams whose dedication, expertise, and hard work were instrumental in the successful and timely completion of this project. To the Master, Chief Engineer, Officers, and Crew of M/T “DELOS T”, we wish safe, smooth, and prosperous voyages—always with calm seas.
