An Asian energy trading group which chartered several long-range 2 (LR2) ships for floating storage may be looking to unwind its position as gasoil markets now appear to shutter.

Hong Kong-based Winson Oil is reported to have booked up to six LR2 tankers since September in the Far East, according to market reports. The 109,999-dw Navig8 Grace (built 2016) is the latest linked to Winson.
