Chinese interests are moving for South Korean and Japanese-built VLCCs in a busy week for tanker deals.
Greece’s Xclusiv Shipbrokers said: “Chinese buyers were very active this week in the VLCC sector, acquiring three VLCCs.”
Unknown Chinese interests acquired the 298,500-dwt scrubber-fitted Hansika, built in Japan in 2006, for $45m or $46m, according to European brokers.
