Downward pressure of weak charter price of ship company's de
Demand for shipping companies has fallen sharply due to low occupancy rates, and the container rental market has declined and accelerated in the past week in the off-season of summer.
The current demand of shipping companies is very weak, especially in Europe and the Caribbean. According to brokers, most of the deals came from the Asian market. In Asia, 1000 TEU - 2000 TEU ships are the most popular.
Several charter indices continued to fall. Among them, the Boxi index released by Braemar seascope this week fell 1.95 points to 94.65. The Hamburg Brokers Association's new contex index fell to 641 from 655 a week ago. The new contex index, which is released twice a week, has fallen for 12 consecutive release days.
Most transactions in the market are subleases. Mediterranean Shipping confirmed that it has rented three 6500 TEU ships from Hanjin office, with a rental of US $30000 / day and a lease term of 8 months. In addition, they rented the APL Sydney (built in 2006, 3530 TEU) for a six-month term of $15000 / day.
It is said that simatech rented "Tatiana Schulte" (built in 2005, 2820teu), with a lease term of 8-10 months and a rent of 14000 USD / day. This transaction is also sublease. In terms of super Panamax container ships, mediterranean shipping is still the most active charterer. They rented two 5060 TEU ships "MSc Debra" and "MSc Mara" built in 2006, each of which costs US $25000 / day and has a 12-month lease term.
The large number of ships available for sublease in the market continues to put downward pressure on the Charter price. It is said that seacastle's 12-month rental for a 5100 TEU is only $18000 / day, far below the price in the previous comparable transaction. The price also surprised brokers, because not long ago the same size but older ships sold for more than that.
Overall, the biggest drop was in the rents of large ships. According to the Hamburg Brokers Association, the 2700 TEU has the largest decline. Smaller ships such as the 1700 TEU have shown better flexibility, even though rents have fallen about $1000 from a few weeks ago.
The increasing uncertainty in the market has once again raised the issue of idle and redundant ships, but according to brokers, no owners have yet taken such measures.
A small number of shipping companies with chartering interests are clearly in the upper hand in negotiations with shipowners. They are not in a hurry to finalize the contract now. In this way, renters usually get lower rents and more favorable terms. Last week, the reappearance of flexible terms in the market was the result of the tenant strategy.
In addition, the general bearish attitude of Charterers also benefits the shipping companies. Confidence that rents will return sharply later this year is fading.
