The move to list in New York has been expected since at least November 2023, when Hafnia CEO and Michael Skov said the company was pursuing the option to attract a larger shareholder base.

Hafnia has filed a registration statement on Form 20-F with the SEC and said it will not issue any new securities in connection with the listing on the NYSE.

A part of the BW Group since a merger in 2019, Hafnia owns 117 vessels and operates a total of 202 ships across eight commercial pools with 30 pool partners.

In its last earnings statement earlier this month, Hafnia announced a Q4 2023 profit of $176.4m, down from $263.8m in Q4 2022. For the full year, profit of $793.2m compared to $751.6m in 2022.
