On Monday, Capital Product Partners announced that it planned to offer 5.8 million common units in a public offering. The transaction was priced the next day at $8.85 per common unit ,a discount of 6.25% from the prior day’s closing price. Proceeds will be used to acquire the M/T Atrotos, a 48,000 DWT product carrier built in 2007 from its sponsor, Capital Maritime & Trading, for $43 million and for general corporate purposes. Chartered to Arrendadora Ocean Mexicana for $19,900 net per day, the vessel is sub-chartered to Petroleos Mexicana for five years. Operating costs for the period are fixed at $3,575 per day, which is a very competitive cost even for a modern ship.
