The Tor class is a class of coasters operated by the Erwin Strahlmann shipping company in Brunsbüttel . The four units of the class were built between 1988 and 1990 at Portuguese shipyards for the shipping company Portline Transportes Maritimos Internacionais from Lisbon. The first three ships were built at the Estaleiros Navais de Viana do Castelo shipyard in Viana do Castelo , the fourth ship at the Estaleiros Navais do Mondego shipyard in Figueira da Foz .
