On Sept. 30, freight rates for Aframax-class tankers from Houston to Rotterdam rose to $27.79 per metric ton per trip, the highest since February and up from $10.14 per metric ton before the Sept. 14 attacks on Saudi facilities. The rate was $18.69 per metric ton on Monday.

The Baltic Exchange index covering crude tankers, the Baltic Dirty Tanker Index, jumped another 119 points to 1,561 points on Oct. 10. Estimates for the Middle East Gulf-to-Asia trade lanes were $158,000-$162,000 per day, with some individual bookings at much higher levels.
According to Frode Mørkedal, shipping analyst at Clarksons Platou Securities, “Recent disruptions have heightened charterers’ concerns for vessel supply and resulted in charterers’ scrambling for tonnage. Activity out of the U.S. Gulf is flourishing. In the Arabian Gulf, vessels are being fixed ahead of time, with five VLCCs already fixed for November loading.”
As previously reported by FreightWaves, VLCC rates are being energized by: (1) the Sept. 25 decision by the Trump administration to place sanctions on COSCO (Dalian), a subsidiary of shipping giant China COSCO Shipping Corp.; (2) increasing seasonal demand; (3) the looming IMO 2020 sulfur-cap rule, which has boosted refinery runs and pulled multiple VLCCs from service for exhaust-gas scrubber installations; (4) higher demand among importers due to concerns over future supply following the Sept. 14 attacks on Saudi oil facilities; and (5) sanctions on Iran, with those exports being replaced by longer haul voyages from sources including the U.S.

Siin ka üks huvitav ajalooline fakt, et hetkel juba veo tasu 20% asja enda väärtusest.
Such numbers haven't been seen since before the financial crash and many players are struggling to strategize given the suddenness of the spike. 'back then' oil prices were in excess of $100 per barrel, but now we are around $60 per
barrel, and the cost of freight is at up to 20 percent of the value. Is this sustainable for any length of time?

Ei saa mainimata jätta, et TNK tegi eile WK52 uue tipu, 2,19$ ja päeva käive tuli miskit 14M, mis on üle 10x normaalse, muidugi palljud kauplemise lehtede radarisse jooksevad ka juba tankerid sisse, kui üleostetud. TNK tegi päris märkimisväärse languse ka päeva siseselt, käies ära 2,19 ja suundudes 1,82 peale.
Huvitav fakt lihtsalt asja juurde sõbrakeselt üle lombi.
About a week and a half ago my brokerage sent me a message asking if I would allow them to lend out my shares and that they would pay me for it. I knew something was up then.

The cost of hiring oil tankers is running out of control and the world’s refineries are feeling the pain.
It cost a record $8 a barrel to ship West African crude to Asia on Friday
That’s roughly four times the average for January through August, the month before rates began to rally.
Tanker owners were earning in excess of $300,000 a day on the industry’s benchmark route as of Friday, an unprecedented amount, according to data from the Baltic Exchange. Those same vessels, which can carry 2 million barrels of crude, were earning $25,000 a day about a month ago.

According to assessments of VLCC spot rates issued by Clarksons Platou Securities, rates peaked on Oct. 11 at an average of $295,100 per day, fell slightly to $281,000 day on Oct. 14, then took a big dive – down 31% – to $194,900 per day on Oct. 15. According to just-posted fixture reports, they’ve now fallen lower still.
He continued, “The FFA [freight futures] curve is pricing November and December contracts at around $80,000 per day. Rates are thus expected to come materially down from inflationary levels, although we expect rates to stabilize in a strong range of $70,000-80,000 per day towards the end of the fourth quarter of 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.”

Running rate sensitivities on DHT is very simple, as we only have VLCCs. An increase in rates of $10,000 per day means $90 million in increased cash per year. To bring this down to an earnings-per-share level, if we get rates in the mid-$60,000s, which we saw in 2015, we should generate [full-year] earnings of not too far from $2.50 per share. That’s a big number.”

Ajalooliselt ikka hinnad kõrged, kuigi hinna hüppelt kõva tagasi langus ja võib veel kukkuda. Suezmax tasuvuse määr all in all 20 000$/päev, seega 62K toob ca 40 000 päevas sisse. (olid ka ajad, kui laeva sai 7000$ eest päevas)
