- Capital Tankers Corp. is an international shipping and maritime transportation company that owns, operates, and charters a modern fleet of tanker vessels engaged in the seaborne carriage of crude oil and refined petroleum products. Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Piraeus, Greece, with corporate registration in the Marshall Islands, the company operates across the global energy supply chain as part of the Capital Maritime & Trading group. The company provides international ocean transportation services through diverse commercial arrangements, including long-term and medium-term time charters, spot market voyage charters, and bareboat charters; specialized vessel commercial management; technical ship management; bunker optimization; vessel maintenance and crewing; and cargo logistics management. Its vessel portfolio comprises modern, fuel-efficient crude and product tankers, including Suezmax crude tankers; Aframax and Long Range 2 (LR2) clean and dirty petroleum product carriers; and Medium Range (MR) chemical and oil product tankers designed for the flexible carriage of crude oil, gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, naphtha, and heavy fuel oils. Capital Tankers Corp. serves a blue-chip international client base consisting of integrated global oil majors, national oil companies, state-owned petroleum enterprises, independent oil refiners, and international commodity trading houses. Geographically, the company maintains worldwide operational reach, deploying its vessels across primary international energy transit corridors throughout the Atlantic Basin, the Middle East Gulf, the Mediterranean and Black Seas, Northern Europe, the Americas, and the Asia-Pacific region. In recent developments, Capital Tankers Corp. expanded its capital market presence by listing its common shares on the Euronext Growth Oslo exchange under the ticker symbol CAPT, securing enhanced access to international institutional maritime investors. Over the past two years, the company has executed an extensive fleet modernization and renewal strategy, acquiring and taking delivery of high-specification, eco-design newbuilding tankers fitted with exhaust gas cleaning systems (scrubbers) and alternative-fuel-ready propulsion systems to reduce carbon emissions. Furthermore, the company has secured multi-year time charter contracts with leading multinational energy traders and oil majors to bolster contracted revenue visibility, while completing strategic fleet realignments within its corporate group and implementing advanced environmental compliance measures to align with European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) maritime regulations and International Maritime Organization (IMO) decarbonization standards.
