Vessel Description

The Cielo di Houston is a medium-range (MR2) product/chemical tanker built in 2017 at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard in South Korea. The vessel operates under the Liberian flag and is managed by d'Amico Tankers Ltd., part of d'Amico International Shipping, a well-established Italian shipping group specializing in product tanker operations.

As an MR2-class tanker, the vessel is designed for the carriage of refined petroleum products and chemical cargoes. The "Cielo" naming convention is characteristic of d'Amico's fleet branding, with vessel names typically referencing sky or atmospheric themes combined with major port cities, reflecting the company's global trading footprint.

The vessel is configured with multiple cargo tanks and a stainless steel or coated tank arrangement suited for clean petroleum products, including gasoline, jet fuel, diesel, and selected chemical cargoes. Her size and draft make her suitable for a wide range of terminals including US Gulf ports, reflecting her namesake port of Houston.
