Scorpio Bulkers owned fleet is down 26 vessels with its latest sale of a kamsarmax as the company accelerates its pivot to the offshore wind sector.

Scorpio Bulkers announced it was selling the 2016-built kamsarmax SBI Zumba for $20m to an undisclosed owner.

Following the sale Scorpio Bulkers will have an owned fleet of 26 dry bulk vessels down 54 in late September. The company has a further five vessels chartered into its fleet.

In early August the company announced its plans to move into the offshore wind market with the signing of a Letter of Intent (LoI) for the construction of a wind turbine installation vessel, plus options, at Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering (DSME).
