About Nova Tankers:
The VLCC Pool will operate a combined fleet of around 50 quality VLCCs by the end of 2012 with an average age of only 3 years. The flexibility of a large, young and reliable fleet ensures that the VLCC Pool can, at all times, offer relevant vessels of the highest standard to cater for our customers' need for safe and environmentally friendly marine transportation.

As the pool will become operational in early February and the first pool board meeting will be held within January 2012, details for management structure and staffs in charge for the pool will be specifically announced later separately.
