TEN Ltd. (NYSE: TEN), a leading diversified crude, product and LNG tanker operator, today announced the order of two eco VLCCs at Hanwha Ocean in South Korea with an option for an additional unit, to be delivered in 2027 and 2028. Concurrently with these orders, TEN proceeded with the sale of three 2007-built vessels, two handysize product tankers to related party interests as well as an aframax crude carrier to independent third parties. From the divestment of the above-mentioned vessels, TEN generated approximately $60.0 million in free cash and about $9.0 million in capital gains to be reflected in the Company’s third quarter financial statements

“TEN continues its goal to address the needs of its clients by building high specification, environmentally friendly vessels while gradually divesting from its first-generation assets,” Mr. George Saroglou, TEN’s President & COO, said. “With responsible fleet growth remaining a core pillar of our tested model, TEN keeps being a one-stop shipping operation for its blue-chip clients,” Mr. Saroglou concluded.
