Brazil's Vale, the world's top iron ore producer, has sold a total of eight of the mining company's VLOCs - Very Large Ore Carriers - to China's Cosco and China Merchants Energy Shipping Group (CMES).

The agreement aims to support the partnership with the two Chinese companies and includes upwards of USD four billion in syndicated and bilateral loans, export credit and other financial instruments, says Vale according to Bloomberg.
