A publicly-listed enterprise, it actively trades on the New York trade exchange under the STNG ticker. In 2017, Scorpio tankers signed a merger agreement with Navig 8 product tankers and acquired the latter’s 27 newly-built LR tankers. As a result, it emerged as the biggest product tanker company on the US Securities Exchange.
