Hafnia Limited engages in the transportation of clean petroleum products via its fleet of product tankers.
Business Segments
The company is organized into several operating segments, each focused on different categories of tanker vessels. These segments include:
Long Range II (LR2)
This segment comprises vessels sized between 85,000 DWT and 124,999 DWT, primarily providing transportation of clean petroleum oil products. These vessels are optimized for longer routes, improving efficiency in the logistics of oil transportation.
Long Range I (LR1)
Consisting of vessels ranging from 55,000 DWT to 84,999 DWT, this segment caters to both clean and dirty petroleum products. The versatility inherent in these vessels enhances the company's capacity to meet diverse client needs.
Medium Range (MR)
Featuring vessels that fall between 40,000 DWT and 54,999 DWT, the MR segment specializes in transporting a wide array of products, including clean and dirty oil products and vegetable oils. This segment includes IMO II vessels, which help ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
Handy
This segment encompasses smaller vessels from 25,000 DWT to 39,999 DWT that carry both clean and dirty oil products, as well as vegetable oil and easy chemicals. This segment allows for integration in various port calls where larger vessels cannot operate effectively.
Specialized
This segment comprises the smallest tankers, sized between 5,000 DWT and 19,999 DWT, which also transport clean and dirty oil products along with easy chemicals. These vessels are essential for serving niche markets and smaller ports.
Chemical-Stainless
Although this segment was previously included, it was exited after the disposal of its Chemical-Stainless vessels acquired through CTI. Consequently, the company shifted its focus to the segments, thereby optimizing its operations and efficiency.
In the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, the company transitioned its Handy, MR, LR1, and LR2 pools from an "agent-to-owner" model to a "despondent-owner" model to enhance operational efficiencies and access working capital more readily. This model allows for a streamlined process where the pool manager can enter contracts for vessel employment in its own name.

The company implements ongoing evaluations of its assets, ensuring that fleet composition aligns with the
demand for specific sizes and types of vessels in the transportation market. The company places significant emphasis on sustainability, particularly in reducing environmental impacts associated with shipping operations, reinforcing long-term viability while addressing regulatory compliance.
