Stena LineStena Line is the world's largest ferry operator, with ferry services in the UK and Scandinavia. Stena Line is a major unit of Stena AB, itself a part of the "Stena Sphere", a grouping of Stena AB, Stena Metall AB and Stena Sessan AB. History Stena was founded by Sten Allan Olsson when he acquired Skagenlinjen in 1962. In the 1980s Stena Line acquired two Scandanavian ferry operators and one Dutch operation. Stena Line doubled in size in 1989 with the acquisition of Sealink British Ferries, which was formerly known as Sealink until its purchase by Sea Containers Ltd in 1984. This became Sealink Stena Line, then Stena Sealink Line and finally Stena Line (UK), which operates all of Stenas ferry services in the UK and Ireland. In 1996 Stena Line introduced its 20,000 tonne HSS vessels (High-speed Sea Service) which operate from Belfast-Stranraer, Holyhead-Dun Laoghaire and Hoek van Holland-Harwich. In 2000 Stena Line purchased Scandlines AB, a Swedish ferry operator. In 2003 Stena Line announced a 70 million redevelopment of its Belfast and Scottish terminals. Routes - United Kingdom
