Sharing a platform with OSG president and chief executive Morten Arntzen, Mr. Troim struck a political tone. "To borrow a presidential slogan, it's time for a change. OSG has been a well- managed company and they have done a phenomenal job," he said. "We are believers that one plus one can be more than two. We could get together for the benefit of shareholders and putting the two stocks into one would be easier for all of us." Frontline took a 10% stake in OSG in March and has since sold stock as well as taking new forward positions for another 4%. Mr. Arntzen said he does not know whether the Norwegian's manoeuvrings would ultimately end in a takeover. He said the company remains focused on its growth strategy, which includes a 39-ship newbuilding programme that will double its Jones Act tanker fleet by 2010. "We have a modern fleet and balanced growth and we will stick to that," he said. Asked if he was ready to retire, he quipped: "Yes, the chocolate mousse circuit is killing me."
