Yes, the reason is that the vessel is a resale from the Greek Company "Transmed"
together with 6-7 sister ships to other various shipping companies for example CASTILLO DE VALVERDE sold from Transmed to HOSCO (HEBEI PEACOCK) and then sold to her present owners.
From the initial order of 8 sister ships at LIAONING BOHAI SHIPYARD, Transmed
owns only 2.
Resale of a newbuilding capesize with the freight rates so high means biiiiig money.
