Seven merchant shipping tankers, including M.T. Bellatrix, are currently docked at the port of Mombasa to deliver petroleum products. The medium-range oil tanker is carrying over 21,000 metric tons of Shell V-Power gasoline, a specially formulated product exclusively imported and distributed in Kenya by Vivo Energy Kenya.
Vivo Energy Kenya, the sole importer and distributor of Shell V-Power in Kenya, stores the product at its Mombasa terminal before transporting it inland for distribution to Shell Service Stations and shipping it via Kenya Railways Corporation Rail Tankers to Nairobi. The premium gasoline contains three times more cleaning molecules, actively cleaning vehicle engines and providing continuous protection against corrosion and deposits.
Alongside M.T. Bellatrix, tankers M.T. Bow Lynx, M.T. Torm Sublime, M.T. Maria, M.T. Pis Rinjani, M.T. Arctic Tern, and Melati 3 are also awaiting discharge at the port. They hold various cargoes, including 4,900 MT of base oil, 85,000 MT of gas oil, and 85,000 MT of MOGAS (petrol). The port is also receiving tankers carrying palm oil loads.
