"We are pleased to have completed this transaction, which leaves Frontline with a focused crude oil tanker fleet comprised of VLCCs, Suezmax tankers and LR2 tankers. Our primary exposure and growth focus is towards the crude tanker market, and our LR2 tankers can be deployed in both the crude oil and refined product trades, leaving us with attractive optionality."
