New York-listed VLCC tanker owner DHT Holdings has announced the acquisition of two 2016-built (DSME) VLCCs for a total price of $136m.

VesselsValue shows the two vessels to be Awilco Eco Tankers pair Eco Future and Eco Queen. The portal values the tankers at a little over $64m each.

DHT says it will finance the deal with available liquidity and projected mortgage debt, and delivery is scheduled for the first half of 2021.

Upon completion of the deal, DHT’s fleet will consist of 29 VLCCs.
