Positive Performance
“We are pleased with our solid performance in Q3 2024 – tanker charter rates maintained their average annual levels, supported by limited supply growth and increased demand in tonne-kilometres resulting from longer tanker voyages due to the disruptions in the Red Sea and the increase in Atlantic-Asia trade,” said the company’s managing director, Andreas Michalopoulos.
