Vessel Description

Pan Fortune is a Capesize dry bulk carrier built in 2016 by Hyundai Heavy Industries in Ulsan, South Korea, and operated by Pan Ocean Co., Ltd., a leading South Korean bulk shipping company under the Harim Group conglomerate.

With a deadweight tonnage of approximately 181,415 DWT, Pan Fortune falls within the large Capesize segment, vessels too wide to transit the Panama or Suez Canals at full load, and therefore typically route around the Cape of Good Hope or Cape Horn. The vessel is purpose-built for the carriage of major dry bulk commodities — primarily iron ore and coal — on long deep-sea voyages connecting resource-exporting regions such as Australia and Brazil with major industrial importers in East Asia and Europe.

The vessel operates under the South Korean flag and maintains registration consistent with Pan Ocean's broader fleet management and commercial chartering operations.
