AET has ordered its first hybrid electric shuttle tanker from Dalian Shipbuilding Industry Corp. The 154,000 dwt vessel is scheduled for delivery in 2028 and will include an electric energy storage system, designed to be dual-fuel ethanol-ready.

This newbuild contributes to AET's fleet renewal and energy transition program, enhancing fuel flexibility as emissions regulations evolve. Currently, AET operates over 70 vessels, including 17 dynamic positioning shuttle tankers in Brazil and Norway. The investment aims to strengthen operational capabilities while delivering sustainable solutions in offshore energy production.
