Analysis of income and expense [abstract]  
Vessel revenue Vessel revenue
During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, we had 19, 16 and 15 vessels that earned revenue through long-term time-charter contracts (with initial terms of one year or greater), respectively. We had one vessel that earned revenue through a bareboat charter-out agreement during the year ended December 31, 2025. The remaining vessels earned revenue from the Scorpio Pools or in the spot market. The following table sets forth our revenue, by employment type, for these periods:

IFRS 16 Lease Revenue
In accordance with IFRS 16 - Leases, we are required to identify the lease and non-lease components of revenue and account for each component in accordance with the applicable accounting standard. In time charter-out or pool arrangements, we have determined that the lease component is the vessel and the non-lease component is the technical management services provided to operate the vessel. In a bareboat charter-out arrangement, the charterer is responsible for the technical management of the vessel, therefore the entire contract is accounted for as lease revenue. Each component is quantified on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of each lease component and on the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.
These components are accounted for as follows:
All fixed lease revenue earned under time and bareboat charter-out arrangements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Lease revenue earned under our pool arrangements is recognized as it is earned, since it is 100% variable.
The non-lease component is accounted for as services revenue under IFRS 15. This revenue is recognized “over time” as the customer (i.e. the pool or the charterer) is simultaneously receiving and consuming the benefits of the service.
The following table summarizes the lease and non-lease components of revenue from time and bareboat charter-out and pool revenue during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023. These figures are not readily quantifiable as the Company's contracts (with the Scorpio pools or under time charter-out arrangements) do not separate these components. We do not view pool and time and bareboat charter-out revenue as two separate streams of revenue. Nevertheless, we have estimated these amounts by reference to (i) third party, published time charter rates for the lease component, and (ii) an approximation of the fair market value of vessel operating expenses for the non-lease component.

For lease arrangements that were accounted for under IFRS 16 – Leases, we had bareboat charter-in commitments on three vessels under fixed rate bareboat agreements and 18 vessels under variable rate bareboat agreements during the year ended December 31, 2023. These arrangements were accounted for under IFRS 16 - Leases.
Vessels recorded as Right of use assets derive income from subleases through time charter-out, voyage revenue (spot market), and pool arrangements. For the year ended December 31, 2023, sublease income of $136.6 million is included in Vessel revenue. There was no such income during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 as these leases were terminated during the year ended December 31, 2023.
The terms of the time charter-out agreements in effect during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 are summarized as follows:

Bareboat charter-out revenue
In August 2025, we commenced a bareboat charter-out agreement on an MR product tanker, STI Bosphorus, at a bareboat rate of $13,150 per day. The vessel is chartered to a third-party joint venture which re-flagged the vessel to the United States in order for it to participate in the U.S. Government's Tanker Security Program (TSP). The contract will remain in effect until the vessel reaches 20 years of age, which will occur in 2037, subject to annual renewal with the National Defense Authorization Act ("NDAA").
IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
For our vessels operating in the spot market, we recognize revenue ‘over time’ as the customer (i.e. the charterer) is simultaneously receiving and consuming the benefits of the vessel. Under IFRS 15, the performance obligation has been identified as the transportation of cargo from one point to another. Therefore, in a spot market voyage under IFRS 15, revenue is recognized on a pro-rata basis commencing on the date that the cargo is loaded and concluding on the date of discharge. We also consider short-term time charters (with initial terms of less than one year) as spot market voyages. These voyages are accounted for under IFRS 16 – Leases (given the contractual nature of the agreements), but are disclosed as spot market voyages in the table above given their short-term nature, and greater exposure to spot market volatility.
The number of vessels operating in the spot market during the year ended December 31, 2024 was a result of a large volume of vessels entering scheduled drydocks, therefore operating on spot voyages to arrive at the yard for drydock. Under spot market voyage charters, we pay voyage expenses except for carbon emissions costs, which are mostly rebilled to the end customers.
Voyage expenses for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 consisted of:
