The congestion in Australia continues to be high with 112 vessels waiting EC Australia and 22 ships waiting WC Audtralia. The waiting in EC India ports Paradip and Visakhapatnam continues , the congestion is mainly due to clearance of cargo from port.

The iron ore import by China continued to remain firm for last couple of weeks and however is expected to weaken a bit as it is likely that the Chinese may import more through long term and volume is also expected to reduce for the balance year, if this happens the spot market may soften. The coal import by China also has reduced considerably.

The Supramax from India to China continued to enjoy good charter rates and the Iron Ore charterers having to pay higher freight, however the market softened slightly for ships opening ECI to China and were seen getting charter rates around USD 28,000 per day.

The Far East / South East Asia also saw some softening with Supramax vessels aiming around USD 16,000-17,000 per day compared to 18,500-19,000 per day last week.
