She was delivered on 19 September to Rederi AB Malmoil who kept her for five years, and was then sold to Rederi AB Bellis and renamed Orion. In 1968 she was sold to Liberian company Hemisphere Steamship Corp. and renamed to Horizon. She was sold again in 1972 to the Greek Athenian Oil Tankers Company who renamed her to Athenian Horizon and kept her until she was broken up at Gadani ship-breaking yard in Pakistan in 1982.[2]
