SHIPBREAKING YARDS IN INDIA DEMOLISH A TOTAL OF 527 VESSELS IN 2012, BREAKING ALL PREVIOUS RECORDS - NIKOS ROUSSANOGLOU, HELLENIC SHIPPING NEWS
India's ship demolition experts of Star Matrix contemplated this week on the issue of why ships in the range of 1,000 and up to 6,500 liquid tons (LDT), considered small tonnages and bearing the name "Chotta Jahaj" in the local market, are usually commanding less rates in the demo market. According to Star Matrix, "they normally find end of life voyage to Mumbai ship recycling yards and hence a complete change in ship breaking estimation and costing applies to it. In comparison to alang, the yards in Mumbai are rented on per ship basis and hence the cost is derived on the time taken to break the ship, GRT/NRT, light ship and BPT (Bombay port trust) approvals/fees per ship. With 12-15 breaking plots, on the rental basis, the breaker is at the mercy of Bombay port trust, for the permissions and the approvals of breaking a particular ship" Star Matrix noted in its weekly update.
It added that "a wrond description can put owner, cash buyer and breaker in the soup of delays on permit for beaching. If the owners/cash buyers, miss the laycan, chances are that the owner/cash buyer will be left high and dry by the breaker in Mumbai, as he then misses out the plot to the breaker who is committing the beaching of his bought ship at the yard. The price per lightship is less as compared to Alang, as there are other charges of excise duty 14.76 PCT, octroi 5 PCT and other additional taxes which comes out to around 3 PCT in all; hence an overall increase in 22 PCT of the price of the ship purchased for demo in Mumbai shores.Hence there is a lower cost per ldt while offering for Mumbai shore. None the less Mumbai , has been breaking approx. 60 small ships a year, which approx. 300,000 MT of recycling steel i.e 10 pct of the number of ships that alang breaks and 5 pct of steel recycled through alang yard", Star Matrix said.
It also noted that "none the less, the price quoted by cash buyers for small tonnages are always basis delivery option for alang/Mumbai India, hence giving all the benefits to the owners for the market based in alang, and giving owners a top dollar from Indian markets. Reefers are banned, container,bulker are of highest preference, tankers and Ro-pax are not preferred" Star Matrix concluded.
Meanwhile, in the demolition markets this week, the final of 2012, "India makes history in terms of maximum number of ships beached this year, with 527 vessels making an average of 1.4 ships beached per day. With 5.2 Mil Metric Ton being recycled from ships, Ship Recycling in India contributed to 9 Pct of total steel manufactured in India. This week though not much activity in international market, few owners are negotiating pvt deals and hence keeping cash buyers at work. 12 vessels waiting for tide to beach, and 5 ships expected to arrive, During the final week of this year's December, a total of 52 ships were recorded arriving in Alang. There has been decent stability in INR with week ending at 54.87 making favourable markets" the report said.
In Bangladesh there was optimism, but more movements are expected by mid-January 2013. Hence will attract bigger vessels for respective yards .LC issues are being resolved, breakers are opening LC to acquire confident tonnage, but renegotiation still remains the game in the yard.
China's demolition market has again geared up with a little influx in price, hence now opening doors for owners to have a very competitive offers basis delivery India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and China. Developing a healthy negotiating scenario across the Ship breaker, cash buyers, brokers and owners for the sale of the demo candidate.
In a separate weekly update, Hellas-based Athenian Shipbrokers noted that "the holiday spirit appears to have caught up with the market, as especially sub-Continent breakers maintain and enhance the cautious climate observed during the past few weeks. It is noticeable that only few sales of tonnage have bNicaraguan President Daniel Ortega seeks foreign investment from Brazil, China, Russia and Venezuela to help build the waterway. Ortega looks to the plan as an alternative to the Panama Canal, fulfilling a national dream more than 150 years in the making.
