Bulgarian shipping company Navigation Maritime Bulgare (Navibulgar) has added to its fleet Chumerna, a 2012-built bulk carrier bought from Switzerland's ABC Maritime.

The Handysize bulker was acquired for US$8m in November 2016, according to VesselsValue's data.

The 36,900dwt Chumerna, previously known as Adfines South, was built by China's Zhejiang Zhenghe Shipbuilding. Featuring a length of 190 meters and a width of 28.5 meters, Chumerna has ice class 1C.

In the next few months, Navibulgar plans to further boost its fleet by adding three ice class 1C vessels, according to the company.
