 PROFILE
Knightsbridge Tankers carries crude oil for Shell, come hell or high water. The company's five 298,000 deadweight ton tankers, each owned by a separate subsidiary, are chartered to Shell International Petroleum, an affiliate of Royal Dutch/Shell, under guaranteed "hell and high water," long-term, bareboat agreements.

Knightsbridge Tankers' very large crude cargo (VLCC) vessels make regular trips between the Arabian Gulf and delivery ports in Europe and Asia. Each vessel is double-hulled to comply with the US Oil Pollution Act of 1990 and can hold more than 300,000 cubic meters of oil.
