FRO - Increase in Ownership Interest in Feen Marine Scrubbers

FRO - Increase in Ownership Interest in Feen Marine Scrubbers

Frontline Ltd. (the "Company" or "Frontline") (NYSE:FRO) today announced that

its ownership interest in Feen Marine Scrubbers Inc. ("FMSI") has increased to

28.9% following the purchase by FMSI of a 30.8% stake in FMSI from Bjørnar Feen.

Robert Hvide Macleod, CEO of Frontline Management said: "FMSI has gained market

share since our initial investment, and we are pleased to see our ownership

stake in the company increase.  Setting aside potential financial benefits, our

ownership in FMSI has allowed Frontline to source high specification scrubbers

on short notice, which we believe will present a challenge to many owners as the

deadline for sulphur emissions compliance approaches."
