US oil major Chevron has chartered of a Greek VLCC that was recently sanctioned by the US Office of Foreign Assets Control (Ofac), the oil major has confirmed.
In an emailed statement, Chevron spokesman Ray Fohr said his company’s shipping arm fixed the 306,500-dwt Seahero (built 2006) on a short time charter.
“The VLCC…is currently performing a voyage that is not related to Venezuela,” added Fohr, without elaborating.
