Commodities giant Trafigura has secured more VLCC tonnage on long-term deals after agreeing on charter extensions with US-listed Top Ships.
The trader has taken the 300,000-dwt Julius Caesar and Legio X Equestris (built 2022) for up to five more years at a daily rate of $41,500 per vessel.
Top Ships said the firm period will be extended for approximately three years with two additional years at the charterer’s option.
