Aeolos Management, a company linked to Greece’s Embiricos family, is believed to have acquired its second VLCC in two months.
Both ships have comparable characteristics and the price levels they achieved point to the surprising resistance that tanker values continue to display in the face of stubbornly sluggish earnings.
The first purchase emerged recently after authorities registered Aeolos as the new manager of a ship to which the company had not previously been linked.
