Clean tankers saw an active week for period deals as oil traders sought out vessels operating in the East of Suez market.

Milan-listed d’Amico International Shipping locked a second LR1 tanker into a charter for up to a year with Trafigura. The 74,000-dwt Cielo di Rotterdam (built 2018) is fixed for six months, likely at a rate of $13,750 per day, with an option for six more months at possibly $14,750 per day.
