Shipping company TORM has bought three LR2 tankers equipped with scrubbers.
The firm has bought the Nissos Schinoussa, Nissos Heraclea and Nissos Therassia, all built in 2015, from Okeanis Eco Tankers for $120.8 million, it said in an emailed statement on Wednesday. The vessels are set to be delivered in the second and third quarters of this year.
