Euronav NV has transformed its business after selling most of its large crude tanker fleet to Frontline. The company is now cash-rich and controlled by the Saverys family (CMB), shifting its focus from pure tanker operations to capital allocation and potential investments in maritime and energy-transition strategies. This change means Euronav’s stock now trades more like a special-situation asset than a traditional cyclical tanker play, altering its risk profile and investor appeal.
