Great Eastern Shipping Co has trimmed its tanker fleet with the confirmed sale of its two oldest suezmax tankers.

The Mumbai-based shipowner has sold the 147,080-dwt Jag Lateef and 150,284-dwt Jag Laadki (both built 2000), it said in a regulatory filing.

The Bharat Sheth-led company said the two ships would be delivered in the second half of the current fiscal year.
