TradeWinds
understands the 309,300-dwt DHT Ann
and DHT Chris (ex-Overseas Ann and Overseas Chris, both built
2001) have secured employment with oil trading companies.
One of the vessels has gone to Core Petroleum on a
$20,000 per day contract, sources say.
The other has secured a 12-month charter with a “leading
oil trader”.
Clarksons presently has a $21,000 per day figure
against a one-year VLCC charter.
As TradeWinds reported last week the DHT Ann was
leaving the Tankers International pool having ended its time with OSG.
The vessel had been earning $38,500 per day with
the bankrupt US operator.
