Last night, the latest VLCC Middle East to China TD3C route’s TCE increased by 5% to $206,000 per day. On the news front, Saudi Arabia’s largest oil shipping company has preliminarily leased at least five super tankers. As the cost of chartering tankers soars, this move further boosts demand for these giant vessels.
CITIC Securities pointed out that the concentration of the tanker industry is clearly increasing. Coupled with structural changes in compliant oil and black oil demand, the supply and demand mismatch in the medium to long term remains solid, and the tanker sector has strong performance resilience and investment value.
