LOUTRO – IMO 9531583

AVIN International Chemical and Oil-Products Tanker

LOUTRO is a Malta-flagged chemical and oil-products tanker built in China in 2011 and operated by Greek tanker company AVIN International.

The vessel is considerably smaller than stated in some simplified descriptions: current registers give a length of approximately:

88.2 metres,

not 100 metres or more.

With a deadweight of 3,200 tonnes, LOUTRO is designed for short-sea transportation of refined petroleum products and specialised liquid cargoes.

She remains fully active in 2026, operating almost entirely around Greece and regularly calling at Piraeus, Agioi Theodoroi, Kavala, Thessaloniki and other domestic petroleum terminals.

PiraeuShips Record

LOUTRO was recorded at Piraeus by PiraeuShips during the continuing Greek-controlled career of an AVIN International chemical and oil-products tanker. Built by Hubei Jiangyan Ship Manufacturing in China in 2011, the 88.2-metre vessel has a gross tonnage of 2,336 GT and deadweight of 3,200 tonnes. Registered in Malta and managed commercially and technically by AVIN International, LOUTRO has spent much of her career transporting petroleum products between Greek refineries, terminals and ports. Still fully active in 2026 and continuing regular calls at Piraeus, Agioi Theodoroi and northern Greek petroleum facilities, the PiraeuShips footage remains representative of the vessel's continuing operational role.
