This special anniversary episode marks 25 years since the launch of the Tankers International VLCC pool — a milestone in the world of crude tanker shipping.

Join CEO Charlie Grey and Chairman Jonathan Lee as they reflect on how the tanker market has transformed since 2000, from double-hull regulations to digitalisation, shifting trade routes, and the new forces shaping global energy transport.

Across two and a half decades, the VLCC market has evolved through changing customers, fuel transitions, and geopolitical shifts — but one thing remains constant: the critical role of VLCCs in powering world trade.

Tune in for a conversation that looks back at the lessons of the past 25 years — and ahead to the opportunities of the next 25.
