    Monaco-headquartered product carrier major Scorpio Tankers has sold one of its LR2 tankers.

    The New York-listed owner said the 2015-built scrubber-fitted LR2 product tanker STI Kingsway for $57.5m to an undisclosed buyer.

    According to the Emanuele Lauro-led company, the sale is expected to close within the first or second quarter of 2026.

    After the sale, Scorpio will control a fleet of 92 product tankers, made up of 36 LR2s, 42 MRs, and 14 handymax units, with an average age of 9.8 years.

    The company has also reached agreements for four MR newbuilds, as well as a pair of VLCCs and LR2s set to be delivered between 2026 and the second half of 2028.
