The Saga Freya is one of Saga Welco's box-shaped, open-hatch vessels specialized in the carriage of forest products fitted with two specialized gantry cranes with lifting capacity ranging up to 70 MT. Saga Shipholding (Norway) AS is a subsidiary of Nippon Yusen Kaisha (NYK), Japan, and was established in Tønsberg, Norway in 2005. The roots, however, goes back to 1991 when NYK, Aaby and Borgestad established a pool cooperation named Saga Forest Carriers, with open hatch gantry craned vessels. In October 2014, Masterbulk Pte Ltd and Saga Shipholding (Norway) AS established a new pool venture, Saga Welco AS. All our vessels are trading in the Saga Welco Pool.
