Petrobras has emerged as the time charterer of a DHT Holdings VLCC for at least 24 months, having struck two similar deals in May.

Brokers reported that the Brazilian state-owned oil major took the 319,713-dwt DHT Stallion (built 2018) for $41,800 per day on a two-year charter.

The contract can be extended by a further 12 months.

The non-scrubber eco-ship is said to be due for delivery in northern China in July.
