Weekly Market Report 22/6/20 - 29/6/20
29th June 2020
NWE/MED
Activity slowed down this week on the coasters in NWE and Mediterranean with fewer market quotes and cargoes. The position list remains plentiful and there are still plenty of vessels prompt open, with more expected to come open over the weekend both in the North and in the MED. Rates are steady at low levels, and we don’t expect any big changes in the near future.
SEA/FEAST
There were limited spot activities reported in the East pressurized market due to regional holidays. A handful of spot LPG cargoes were concluded this week with imports into Indonesia and Vietnam. Going into next week, further discussions were expected with import demand into Bangladesh. C4 Raffinate exports were discussed this week basis exports from Taiwan in July, which found home in China and consequently will be covered under MOC vessels. More Southeast Asia exports in July are expected next week as buyers finalize July program. Propylene activities have cooled down and it is reported that most of the buyers are already covered for July and eyeing for August. We have therefore seen reduced employment of propylene vessels in July.
