Exhibit 99.1

Scorpio Tankers Inc. Announces 16 Newbuilding Agreements and $525 Million in Commitments to the 2013 Credit Facility

MONACO--(Marketwired - May 30, 2013) - Scorpio Tankers Inc. (NYSE: STNG) ("Scorpio Tankers," or the "Company") announced today that it has reached agreements with five shipyards in Korea to construct 16 newbuilding vessels consisting of eight LR2, four MR, and four Handymax ice class-1A product tankers.  In addition, the Company announced that syndication of the Company’s previously announced $267 million Credit Facility has been heavily over-subscribed resulting in an increase of the overall commitments received from new and existing financial institutions to $525 million.

Emanuele Lauro, chief executive officer and chairman of the board, commented, "These 16 orders for fuel efficient vessels, and, as significantly, the over-subscription of our 2013 credit facility, have solidified our unique position in front of an improving cycle in product tankers. We are pleased that our shareholders and lenders alike are showing their support of our strategy.

"Furthermore, we are observing attenuated capacity at quality shipyards, meaning that prices have moved up 8-12% and expected deliveries for new orders are moving beyond 2015. Under these circumstances, we have no plans for further newbuilding contracts."
