The Emanuele Lauro-led firm has struck a deal for the sale of 2014-built scrubber fitted STI San Antonio and STI Texas City at $42.5m each. Delivery of the SSP-built 50,000 dwt ships is expected in the fourth quarter of 2024. New York-listed Scorpio currently owns or leases 104 product tankers, 51 of which are MRs.
