Norway's Torvald Klaveness is to reduce its exposure to supramax bulkers as it plots a doubling of its pool fleets.

Its Klaveness Chartering arm operates ships with a particular strength in panamaxes, kamsarmaxes and post-panamaxes.

It said there are significant synergies with the rest of the group in this activity, with Klaveness Combination Carriers having dry bulk as one of its target markets, and Klaveness Digital, through its CargoValue platform, helping companies to source and ship dry and wet raw materials.
