Hunter Group ASA

Hunter Group ASA is a publicly traded investment company specializing in the maritime and energy sectors, with a primary focus on shipping and oil services investments. Its core operations center on oil tanker chartering through its wholly owned subsidiary, Hunter Tankers AS, which manages a fleet of four identical Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs)—Hunter Freya, Hunter Disen, Hunter Idun, and Hunter Frigg—built between 2019 and 2020. These vessels facilitate the global transportation of crude oil, supporting the midstream segment of the oil and gas industry by enhancing supply chain efficiency. Headquartered in Oslo, Norway, and founded in 2003 as Badger Explorer ASA before renaming in May 2017, the company maintains a lean structure with just three employees and one primary operating segment dedicated to vessel chartering and related investments. Hunter Group ASA plays a niche role in the international energy transportation market through strategic asset management in shipping.
