Sources indicated on 16 October 2026 that Advanced Shipping & Trading S.A. recorded the commitment of the Capesize vessel Golden Myrtalia to Norwegian interests for USD 40 million.

The vessel is identified in the report as Golden Myrtalia, 178/2011 SWS, China, and classified as a Capesize. The notation SS/DD 10/2026 appears alongside the listing in Advanced Shipping & Trading S.A.'s weekly market report for week 42, 2026.

The announcement, carried by reports, states the transaction value as USD 40 million and describes the buyer only as Norwegian interests. Advanced Shipping & Trading S.A. is cited in the original report as the source of the transaction detail.

The sale detail was presented as part of Advanced Shipping & Trading S.A.'s WEEKLY SHIPPING MARKET REPORT WEEK 42 2026, which sources published on 16 October 2026. The listing places the vessel’s build and registry shorthand next to the name, following standard market-report format.

The use of the word committed in the published line suggests an agreed deal was recorded in the market report. The report does not elaborate further on the terms, delivery timing, or the identity of the Norwegian buyer beyond the description used in the item supplied to reports.

Vessel identification and survey note

The report gives the vessel’s construction identifier as 178/2011 SWS, China. The additional notation SS/DD 10/2026 is included in the same line of the market report. Those details accompany the vessel name and price in the single-line entry provided by Advanced Shipping & Trading S.A.

Source and context

reports presented the item within its round-up of Advanced Shipping & Trading S.A.'s weekly market intelligence for week 42 of 2026. The published entry is concise and limited to the essential transaction data: vessel name and particulars, buyer nationality as stated, and the dollar value recorded in the report.

No further operational or commercial detail was supplied in the single-line market entry made available through reports. The report as supplied does not include comment from the seller, the purchaser, or brokers, nor does it supply a timetable for flag or ownership transfer.

Market observers will note the listing as a recorded commitment within Advanced Shipping & Trading S.A.'s weekly compilation, but the published line itself confines the public record to the ship’s designation, the SS/DD notation dated October 2026, the buyer description, and the USD 40 million figure.

The item stands as a discrete market report entry in reports's coverage of Advanced Shipping & Trading S.A.'s week 42 bulletin. It provides a clear headline transaction line but leaves ancillary commercial details to the private parties and to any fuller notices that might follow elsewhere.
