Danish owner Norden has added to its tanker market exposure with the charter of three medium range vessels.

It has booked one tanker from Samos Steamship and two from Polys Haji-Ioannou’s World Tankers during the past few weeks, shipbrokers say.

Norden is said to be paying $13,100 per day for the 47,000-dwt Papillon (built 2007) on a one-year deal.
