Belgium's Euronav has said "market disruption" opened up an opportunity to acquire two suezmax newbuildings in South Korea.
TradeWinds first reported at the end of January that the New York and Brussels-listed owner was finalising a resale deal for the 157,000-dwt tankers at Daehan Shipbuilding for $57.5m each, or $115m in total.
Euronav confirmed on Wednesday that it had sealed the deal for $113m en bloc.
