Major Greek shipowner Thenamaris has been linked to the sale of a 16-year-old tanker, its 13th divestment of an oil carrier since the beginning of last year.

In line with company policy not to discuss commercial transactions, managers at the Athens-based company declined to comment on reports by at least two Greek brokers that the 116,900-dwt Seamagic (built 2007) is being sold for $47m.
