The significant increase in revenues is a testament to our strategic decisions, including the expansion of our fleet and our ability to capitalize on improved market conditions. This success is a result of the hard work and dedication of our entire team.
Our strong backlog of charter commitments, coupled with good values for offshore charter rates, positions us well for continued growth and financial stability.
