Individual Cooperation Agreements on Asia-Europe Trades

Cosco, "K" Line, Yang Ming, Hanjin and Evergreen have agreed to initiate individual cooperative arrangements on Asia-Europe trades starting from April 2012 as announced last December. This cooperation between the four CKYH Lines and Evergreen Line is designed to offer customers best sailing frequency, transit time and service coverage so as to fulfill customers' needs. These bilateral arrangements will be implemented in 8 weekly services for Asia - North Europe and 4 for Asia - Mediterranean including direct services for Asia - Adriatic regions calling Rijeka, Koper and Trieste. Especially, weekly services for Asia - North Europe, which in fact, offer the highest frequency in the market, will also provide very attractive transit times from Asia to major European ports including Rotterdam, Hamburg and Felixstowe (i.e. 26-27 days from Shanghai/Ningbo and 23-24 days from Yantian). The majority of the fleet operated in these total twelve loops will be ranging from 8,000TEU to 13,000TEU size (K Line)

Chinese demand to support base metals in 2H: Deutsche Bank

Chinese demand to underpin industrial base metals in the second half of the year, said Deutsche Bank in a research note. According to the bank, these metals could face pressure in the near term due to such factors as high oil prices weighing on economic growth, a stronger U.S. dollar and lack of catalysts for further monetary accommodation. However, the bank remains positive on Chinese economic growth. Even though Chinese authorities recently lowered their target economic-growth rate for 2012, bank added. Deutsche Bank also said that its economist on China upped the forecast to 8.6% from 8.3% due to better-than-expected export growth, improved performance of small businesses

and less severe impact from a real-estate downturn than the market perception. Meanwhile, the bank added that, 2012 is likely to be a big year in terms of public-housing construction. “The government plans to start 7 million units and complete building 5 million units by the end of this year. In addition, the 10 million units started last year will continue construction this year,” bank concluded. (Commodity Online)

following day, the document showed. Pertamina first issued the tender on Feb. 20 and reissued it

twice. (Bloomberg)

Russia to Cut April ESPO Crude Exports to 12 Cargoes, Plan

Shows

Russia, the world’s largest oil producer, plans to export 12 cargoes of East Siberian Pacific Ocean pipeline, or ESPO, crude in April, one less than March, a loading schedule obtained by

Bloomberg News shows. A total of 1.2 million metric tons, equivalent to 293,200 barrels a day, of ESPO crude will be loaded from the port of Kozmino in Russia’s Far East near the city of Nakhodka in April,

according to the plan. Russia also plans to ship three cargoes of 100,000 tons each

of ESPO for loading on May 1 to May 6, the plan showed. Loading programs are monthly schedules of crude shipments compiled by field operators to allow buyers and sellers to plan

their supply and trading activities. (Bloomberg)

In Brief: Week brought some positive sentiment on the market and the BDI increased from 778 to 824.

Capes: Stability in a decreasing manner would describe this week for capes. Due to great number of open vessels, especially in Far East, the average TC routes went down by USD 193 over the week closing at USD 5,786 The Atlantic market was driven mainly by Canada and East Coast of USA that produced some cargoes to Far East. ECSA was slow during the week in spite the fact that owners kept ballasting their vessels at that direction. The transatlantic round fell even more at around USD 4,250 levels while the fronthaul trips kept the one dollar difference of USD 20.00 pmt of charterers to USD 21.00 that owners were asking. Pacific had more movement on cargoes with the majority been exported by the Australian iron ore majors. The Far East round was increased significantly compared to last week by USD 2,750. Period activity was low with few fixtures done and rates around USD 12,500 levels.

Panamax: Atlantic firming up whereas Pacific stabilizing at last week’s levels. In the Atlantic Basin, Black Sea seems waking up, at last, and has pulled ballasters to the East Med. As a result supply of tonnage at USG and Continent decreased and rates went upwards. ECSA steadily offers employment to balasters from Far East so the week closed with the T/A round at usd 5k levels and the fronthaul trips at usd 15k. At the Pacific Basin, the traffic from NOPAC and Australia was not enough to improve the rates so these kind of trips closed at usd 7000-7500 daily. Not much period activity but a 64 k dwt panamax got for 2/5 months usd 7,250 dlosp Mid China. For LME vessels the rates for 4/6 months closed at usd 10,000-10,500.

Supramax: Further recovery in the Atlantic. Steady Pacific.

In the Atlantic we saw many fresh petcoke and coal requirements from USG. Scrap traffic also is slightly increased from USG and USEC where as in the Continent only a few handymax stems were in the market. The rates from USEC were dramatically increased as we have been informed that a supramax got usd 11OOO aps USEC for a trip to the Med. Many grain charterers also entered the market during this week with supramax stems out of Missisipi with destination Far East. South East keeps the lead at the Fareast market with many fresh coal orders coming out and nickel ore charterers had to pay higher premium consequently. The rates for Indo/India closed around 12000 basis delivery South China and basis same delivery for Indo/China rounds the rates closed between 10000-11000.The NOPAC rounds seem stabilizing at levels between 10000-11000 and the period rates for 4/6 months basis worldwide redely closed at usd 12000-12500. Handysize: Week showed some positive sentiment especially to South East Asia The Atlantic remained at similar levels for another week with the transatlantic been done at USD 7,000. The lack of cargoes from ECSA, as sugar for example, and the oversupply of tonnage and ballasters from West Africa did not help to see better rates. USG picked up a notch but still USD 9,000 for trip to East Med is not what owners expected when decided to take extremely low rates, even zero hire during last weeks, to reposition their vessels there. On the fronthaul levels remained low at around USD 4,000 similar to last week. Pacific was much better with significant improvement, reflected on the round voyage which was done at USD 8,000 levels a notable increase of USD 1,500 more. Coal from Indonesia to China and Korea was in the spotlight with many orders been out that firmed up and fixed at numbers more than USD 9,000. The most problematic area once more was East Coast India with very few and low paying cargoes. Period activity was very slow as there was not much interest from owners although charterers went out asking for long period tonnage.

VLCC: For another week the majority of ex Middle East fixtures was bound for the Far East namely 27 out of the 31 whilst only 3

to the west. Eastbound rates posted further gains closing at WS 56. On the other hand on the AG – USG route there was also an

increase by the end of the week at WS 36. In the Atlantic market there were some 12 new fixtures reported. On the WAFT –

USG route activity was focused more on the Suezmax sector whilst rates concuding at WS 60. The WAFR – Far East route activity

was lower, however there was a slight increase in rates to WS 55.

Suezmax: There was an increased activity in the Atlantic Suezmax this week, where the WAFR – USAC route posted gains

concluding at WS 80. Due to the stronger VLCC market interest for Trans Atlantic cargoes is focused on Suezmaxes.

Aframax: The deep of the Aframax sector continued for another week mainly due to the oversupply of tonnages in the

benchmark CBS – USG route. As a result there was a decline in rates of about 7,5 worldscale points to WS 100.

Products: On the Panamax front, there was a increase in rates this week mainly due to weather delays is the USG which resulted

in a tighter position. The market concluded at WS 150. As MRs are concerned activity in the CBS – USAC route remained around

WS 155. For another week there was an increase in rates ex USG with rates posting a gain of 5 points on the USD – TA. Finally,

the European market remained at WS 165.

Activity Increases

There was an increased activity across all sectors in this week’s SNP market. Prices are continuing a downward trend with

the bottom remain to be reached. Nevertheless the BDI index continued an upward trend.

For a consecutive week Shiptrade’s enquiry index had an upward trend. In the dry sector there was a firm interest for

Handymaxes. In the tanker sector there was an increase for Aframaxes particularly for 90s built tonnages, which is also

attributed in recent sales. Nevertheless the MR sector dominated the field for another week.

Handysize M/V “Santa Pacifica” (28,520 DWT built in 2000 in Imabari, JPN) is reported sold for USD 10,8 Mill to Turkish

buyers.

In the tanker sector, Zinc coated Aframax M/T “Millennium Explorer” (102,741 DWT built in 1999 in JPN) is reported sold

for USD 10,8 Mill to Greek buyers.

Greek buyers are reported to have bought en bloc from Danish owners Torm two modern MR tankers. Ice classed M/T

“ Torm Laura” (53,160 DWT built in 2008 in Guangzhou, CHN)/ “Torm Lana” (52,941 DWT built in 2009 in Guangzhou, CHN)

are reported sold for USD 28 Mill each.

NEWBUILDNGS

In the newbuilding market, we have seen 6 vessels reported to have been contracted.

1 Bulk Carrier (Post Panamax)

1 Tanker (Suezmax)

4 Containers (1.100 TEU)

DEMOLITION

Bangladesh one more difficult week facing problems both for sellers and cash buyers. In India shows some signs of

improvement however the oversupply does not allow this to be realized. Pakistan market has concluded some deals after

having lost several candidates to India during the previous weeks. The Chinese market continued to impress with quite a

few deals being concluded.
