Renewed export activity from Libya and stronger Atlantic Basin trading activity are firming up rates for aframax tankers.
News reports indicate that Libya’s National Oil Co (NOC) started looking this week to fix an aframax tanker to move 80,000 tonnes of crude oil from the Ras Lanuf oil terminal.
Last month, the NOC announced a deal with the current government and local militias that would see the terminal reopen.
