DHT Holdings announces fleet update

DHT Holdings (DHT) continues its fleet modernization program with two key vessel announcements. The company has taken delivery of the DHT Gazelle, a VLCC newbuilding from Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries. The vessel, which is the third in a series of four deliveries during the first half of 2026, will commence a five- to seven-year time charter contract with a major oil company. In its planned fleet renewal, DHT also confirms the delivery of the DHT China (built 2007) to its new owners. The fourth and final newbuilding in the Antilope-class is expected in June 2026, aligning with the earlier announced sale and scheduled mid-year delivery of the DHT Bauhinia (built 2007). The fully funded state-of-the-art newbuildings enhance the company’s earnings power, fleet efficiency, and service offerings.
