Societe d’Armement et de Transport (Socatra) has raked in about $15.75m from the sale of an MR tanker, bringing to three the number of such ships the French company has recently offloaded to Greek interests, in straight sale-and-purchase deals or resales.

TradeWinds already reported in April how the Bordeaux-based company raised $69.6m by selling two of the four MR newbuildings it had under construction at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD).
