The Scorpio Group is continuing to build on its commercial management operations by launching an aframax pool, starting with a trio of chartered-in vessels.

Scorpio pools director Ugo Romano confirms that the group has taken in three aframaxes — the 110,000-dwt PS Genova, 109,000-dwt PS Amalfi (both built 2011) and 107,500-dwt PS Trieste (built 2010) — as the foundation for its new A-Max pool.
