Celsius Shipping has successfully secured a deal for their two Medium Range (MR) sister vessels, the 'Celsius Penang' and 'Celsius Perth'. Both vessels, built in 2004 by Hyundai Mipo in Korea, have been committed to Indonesian buyers at a price of USD 8 million each. The 'Celsius Penang' and 'Celsius Perth' underwent their last special survey and dry docking in September and December of 2019, respectively, ensuring the vessels are in good standing for their new ownership. This strategic move highlights Celsius Shipping's ongoing commitment to optimizing their fleet.

Celsius Shipping, the prominent Danish maritime operator, has announced its acquisition of four tankers from Kirk Kapital, marking a significant strategic shift for both companies. With this transaction, Kirk Kapital completely exits the shipping industry. Previously, in April 2018, Kirk Kapital divested two additional tankers to the renowned Danish shipowner Norden. The newly acquired vessels include the 'Christina Kirk', 'Edith Kirk', 'Gunhild Kirk', and 'Marie Kirk'. This acquisition allows Celsius Shipping to not only broaden its operational portfolio but also enhances its fleet, increasing its total number of vessels from 34 to 38. This move underscores Celsius Shipping's commitment to expanding its presence in the maritime industry.

On December 25, 2012, the tanker 'Edith Kirk' became a beacon of hope in the Mediterranean Sea, successfully rescuing two men who had been missing for three excruciating days. The men had set out in a small boat, only to be reported missing by their concerned families. The vigilant crew of the 'Edith Kirk' acted swiftly upon receiving the distress alert, spotting the stranded individuals waving a red flag from their vessel less than an hour later. Without delay, the tanker maneuvered toward the small boat and threw a line to secure it close to their ship. The crew provided much-needed food and water, as the men were famished and dehydrated after their prolonged ordeal at sea. In just half an hour, the Coast Guard arrived to safely transfer the two seafarers from the 'Edith Kirk.' The tanker continued its voyage, docking in Istanbul on December 27, after fulfilling its brave act of rescue.
