Stolt-Nielsen Limited dominates the chemical tankers market as the largest operator, boasting an extensive fleet of specialized stainless steel vessels for bulk liquid chemicals. Headquartered in London, UK, the company, founded in 1959, recently acquired full control of its joint venture with Odfjell, integrating eight modern 32,800 DWT tankers built between 2016 and 2018 to bolster its market leadership. Odfjell SE, the world's second-largest player based in Bergen, Norway, operates a robust fleet focused on safe, efficient transport of hazardous liquids, with ambitious plans for 6 to 12 new supersegregation tankers costing $500–900 million starting in 2027. MOL Chemical Tankers, part of Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, solidified its top position by acquiring Fairfield Chemical Carriers in March 2024 for ~$400 million, expanding its fleet to 117 ships—the largest globally—and emphasizing eco-friendly innovations.

Hafnia, headquartered in Singapore and founded in 2010, ranks among the leaders with one of the world's largest fleets of product and chemical tankers, serving energy and chemical sectors amid rising global demand.
