Scorpio Tankers is set to sell two of its older vessels in an apparently opportunistic move.

It is expected to part with the 50,000-dwt STI Emerald and STI Sapphire (both built 2013) following a successful tender process.

A price of $28m each is being placed on the Hyundai Mipo built pair, which were some of the first eco-ships delivered to Scorpio Tankers.
