Change at the top of Tankers International

VLCC pool Tankers International has announced the appointment of Charlie Grey as CEO, replacing Jonathan Lee, who will become chairman. Grey had been chief operating office previously.

The pool, established in 2000, holds 64 vessels today. Recent developments include the establishment of a new optional climate compensation voyage programme and the continued development of the widely used Tankers International VLCC fixture app.

“As a founding member over 23 years ago, we have sought the best stewardship for the leading VLCC pool,” Hugo De Stoop, CEO of Euronav, said. “I am confident that under his leadership, along with the support of the management team, Charlie can deliver exceptional value and competitive financial returns for all pool partners.”
