Bulker named FRONT DRIVER, built in 1991 by Hyundai Heavy Industries South Korea (and owned by
Frontline Management of Norway) - Now at the end of it's service life comes to Gadani beach of Pakistan, for
decommissioning and breaking. All the steel ( almost 90,000 tons of it ) will now get recycled, and used within
Pakistan. The FRONT DRIVER was 169178 DWT.
This video shows how a giant ship such as this arrived at Gadani beach ( on November 28th 2012 ), and how
got broken up.
