PROSPECTS – ODFJELL

  • On the shipping side the recovery is slow.
  • Good second quarter activity in certain trades, but pressure on freight rates will probably continue.
  • Certain operators are entering new trades.
  • Disposal of older units has made our tonnage situation tighter.
  • Further fleet reduction (older units).
  • Deliveries of newbuildings will continue.
  • Ships on order will probably be delayed or not delivered.
  • The rise of bunkers prices concerns, and may hamper recovery of out time charter results.
  • Continued challenging market, but believe we will see a slow but gradual improvement of our time charter earnings.
  • Tank terminal results expected to remain strong.
