George Economou is rumoured to have continued a productive week with the addition of a 10th vessel in quick succession.

As TradeWinds reported in this week’s print edition, Economou companies are being tied to the acquisition of fleets of newcastlemax bulkers and LR tankers at the same time as adding a modern VLCC.

Now, the Greek tycoon is also being touted at the buyer of an aframax resale, which if confirmed would take his reported transactions this week to almost $310m.
