Behind every name there is a story, and this is also true when it comes to Wallenius Lines’ vessels. The first ships received names after the cargo they carried, soya oil. In the late 1940s and for another ten years, the female members of the family loaned their names for those tankers. The first tanker was SOYA-Maria, named after founder Olof Wallenius’ mother. Olof Wallenius was a great music lover, and starting in 1941 all dry cargo vessels carried names after operas. The first vessel to receive an opera name was RIGOLETTO, and this was followed over the years by many other operas with well-known, easy to remember names that were the reason for the nickname “The Opera Line”.
