Samos Steamship has divested its oldest tanker to an unidentified Greek peer, barely one month after circulating the 14-year-old aframax as a sale candidate.
The 105,300-dwt Nectar (built 2005) fetched between $15.5m and $15.9m, according to brokers in Greece and the US. Managers at Samos Steamship did not respond to a request for comment on reports of the transaction.
Samos Steamship has been operating the tanker ever since taking delivery of it as a newbuilding from Sumitomo.
