Large tankers could be set for a much-needed boost from US crude producers, according to Gibson Shipbrokers.

Both the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the Energy Information Administration forecast US crude output rising, with the latest estimates for 2022 ranging from growth of 650,000 barrels per day (bpd) to 800,000 bpd.
