Two Greek shipowners have secured attractive rates for suezmaxes chartered on a short-term basis to US oil major Chevron.

Brokers reported Polembros Shipping’s 150,000-dwt Humble Warrior (built 2020) and Angelicoussis-controlled Maran Tankers’ 156,000-dwt Maran Helen (built 2017) to be fixed out for between one and three months in the Mediterranean at $65,000 per day each.

By contrast, Transmed Shipping’s 152,000-dwt Zeno (built 2003) was fixed earlier in September by trader Trafigura for three months at $45,000 per day.
