Euronav has offloaded an elderly VLCC to Greek owner New Shipping. The 15-year-old TI Topaz fetched $21m.

The elderly Belgium registered ship has been a workhorse for Euronav since 2005, and is now listed trading in the spot market.

This is the third VLCC the Adam Polemis fronted company has picked in the last six months.
