The second of nine new vessels to be operated by Canpotex through a joint venture with Copenhagen-based U-Sea Bulk has been delivered, and is expected to arrive at the Neptune Terminals facility in Vancouver’s North Shore on Nov. 7 to load Saskatchewan potash for its maiden voyage.
The ship, built by Japan’s Imabari Shipbuilding, can hold 60,000 tonnes of potash. It is named after Canpotex-member Mosaic’s Colonsay potash mine in Saskatchewan.
The vessel “is a symbol of our ongoing commitment to quality and to providing potash to our customers on a consistent and timely basis,” Steve Dechka, Canpotex’s CEO, said in a press release.
