THE PANAMAX & SUPRAMAX FUTURES FOR 2011-2013 WAS AT AROUND US$ 16,500 & US$ 15,000 PER DAY RESPECTIVELY


COALspot.com - With the Chinese new year holidays this week, the market has been fairly quite as expected.

The BDI saw a bigger drop compared to last week and was down by about 8 pct and closed at 1,043 points. It will be interesting to see if the BDI will go below 1,000 points. But seems the BDI has almost bottomed out and may not go down much.

The Cape index also was down by about 5 pct and closed at 1,299 points, with the average charter rate at all time low at US$ 5,161 per day. The Panamax index was almost steady and was up just by about 1 pct and closed at 1,348 points. Supramax and Handy size index was also down by about 10 pct and closed at 1,090 points and 643 points respectively.

The cyclonic weather in Queensland and shippers declaring force majeure the situation has added to the market woes. The situation is expected to return to normal in about a week time.

The average charter rates was at Cape/US$ 5,161 per day , Panamax/US$ 10,786 per day , Supramax/US$ 11,398 per day and Handy size/US$ 9,422 per day.

The Supramax index in the feast (S6 route) was down by US$ 404 per day (down by 5.23 pct) and closed at US$ 7,310 per day (last week US$ 7,714 per day). The EC India/ China (S7 route) was down by 128 points (up by 1.11 pct) and closed at US$ 11,370 per day (last week US$ 11,498 per day). The S6 route is likely to be steady/soft next week.

According to Vistaar singapore, the futures for three years (2011-2013) was at around Cape/US$ 20,000 per day, Panamax/US$ 16,500 per day, Supramax/US$ 15,000 per day , Handy size/US$ 10,750 per day.

The congestion in EC Australia was almost same at 107 vessels this week (last week 106  vessels). The vessels waiting at main coal loading ports were at Hay point/17, DBCT/33, Gladstone/10, Abbot Point/2, New Castle/39, Port Kembla/4 vessels. On the WC Australia iron ore vessels waiting increased to 45 vessels (last week 31 vessels).

The waiting at Indian ports for coal vessels was quite normal except for Paradip, Haldia, Kandla where the berthing delays was high with berthing delays of about 10/12 days.

The crude prices firmed up mainly due to Egyptian crisis and Brent crude prices was at US$ 100.12 per barrel (last week US$ 99.31 per barrel). Bunker prices also firmed up sharply and was at US$ 582.00 pmt (last week US$ 552.00 pmt) for IFO 380 cst ex Singapore on 4th Feb 2011.
