Greece’s Laskaridis Shipping Group, Oldendorff Carriers of Germany and Switzerland’s SwissMarine have emerged as the buyers of four post-panamax vessels sold by Norden last week.

Norden exited the post-panamax bulker area with the sale of the 114,200-dwt sistership quartet Nord Delphinus, Nord Dorado, Nord Pyxis and Nord Pisces (all built 2010).

The Danish owner did not reveal the price of the deal, or the buyers, other than to say the company would incur an accounting loss of $16m on the sale.
