Milan-listed product tanker owner and operator d’Amico International Shipping (DIS) has clinched a new charter deal for one of its MR2 vessels.
The Carlos di Mottola-led company has fixed the unnamed tanker to “a reputable counterparty” for two years, starting at the end of September.
The rate was not disclosed, but DIS said it was “very profitable”.
Earlier this year, the company revealed a three-year charter deal for one of its eco MR2s, which was also described as very profitable.
Following the latest fixture, DIS said it has 34% of its available vessel days fixed at a time charter equivalent rate (TCE) of $26,629 per day for the fourth quarter of this year and 22% fixed at TCE rate of about $24,655 per day for the full year 2025.
“Through this deal, we continue to advance our strategic goal of gradually increasing our contract coverage to ensure stable earnings in the months and years ahead, benefiting from strong market fundamentals,” said DIS chief executive di Mottola.
