The contracts for eight years are to be performed by two vessels, the TI Asia (2002 - 441,893) and the TI Africa (2002 - 441,655). The Contracts will call for extensive conversion and the vessels will commence the provision of FSO services in July and September of 2009.

The Cap Felix (2008 - 159,000 dwt), a newbuilding Suezmax built at Samsung Heavy Industries in Korea, to be delivered in April 2008, has been fixed out on time charter contract to BP for a period of three years. The contract includes a floor rate and a profit sharing element in order to participate to any upside movement of the spot market.

The two newbuilding VLCCs (Hull 1925 and 1926) currently under construction at Hyundai Heavy Industries in Korea, with delivery foreseen in the first quarter 2009 have been chartered out to Total for a period of seven years. The time charter contract will start beginning of the second quarter of this year and will initially be performed by the Algarve (1999 – 298,969 dwt) and the Luxembourg (1999 – 299,150 dwt). These vessels will be replaced by the two aforementioned newbuilding VLCCs upon their delivery ex-yard.
