2 Shipping, Commodities & Financial News Weekly product tanker capacity growth rises, crude tanker falls Capacity, in a commoditized industry like shipping, is an important metric that directly impacts companies' top line or revenue performance. When capacity grows faster than demand, competition will rise among individual shipping firms as they try to use idle ships and cover fixed costs. This will lower day rates, which will negatively affect bottom-line earnings, free cash flows, and share prices for tanker companies. Companies are scrapping crude tankers amid a depressing market Between August 23 and 30, tanker capacity measured in deadweight tonnage (the weight a ship can safely carry across the ocean), fell by another 0.04% for crude tankers. Product tankers, on the other hand, rose 0.05% % using the last eight weeks to smooth out the data. The recent decline in growth rates appears to reflect lower shipping rates. When shipping rates are at depressing levels and shipping companies can't profit by running the new or existing ships, companies will delay receiving new ships or scrap ships to reduce capacity and support rates. This could act as a short-term support for shipping rates. But this is another indicator that points to the depressed crude tanker market, given that ship orders had slumped over the same period. Annual capacity growth falling While annual capacity growth still remains above 3.5% for crude tankers and even higher for product tankers, it has come down since April, which is a positive sign. Analysts consider year-over-year growth because it adjusts for possible seasonality and short-term noise, and demand figures are often quoted on a year-over-year basis for the same reasons. So this makes comparing supply and demand balance easier Interpretation of higher growth The decline in weekly capacity is a positive sign that incumbent firms are resorting to scrapping and slippage to alleviate issues with excess capacity and support shipping rates for crude tankers. If shipping rates rise further from here, however, as they often do because of seasonal increases in demand for heating oil for the winter, capacity growth will likely rise. For product tankers, the weakness we've seen over the past few weeks appears to be due to a short-term pause in deliveries. This will likely pick up throughout the remainder of this year, as several companies such as Navios Maritime Acquisition Corp. (NNA) and Scorpio Tankers Ltd. (STNG) have been placing large number of orders since last year. Depending on whether demand is expected to meet supply, current capacity growth could be negative or positive for tanker firms such as Frontline Ltd. (FRO), Nordic American Tanker Ltd. (NAT), Navios Maritime Acquisition Corp. (NNA), and Scorpio Tankers Ltd. (STNG). (Market Realist) The dynamics of the global oil trade and demand for crude tankers There are two key driving forces of oil shipment demand today, which has been a trend for the past five years: a decrease in oil shipments to the United States and growth in China. In 2010, the largest importers of oil in the world were the United States, China, Japan, and India. The United States imported 9.2 million barrels a day (21% of the total), while China, the second largest importer, imported 4.7 million (11% of the total), according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). The United States leaves while China picks up The United States has historically been the largest importer of oil. But since horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing technologies have made it possible for energy companies to extract oil from areas where oil extraction was initially considered impossible and uneconomical, domestic production started to take off after successful trials, beginning the United States' journey to becoming an energy-independent country. As OPEC (the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countriesâ which are primarily situated in Africa and the Middle East) and oil shipment companies continued to lose business from the West, they found a savior in the East: China. Driven by rapid growth, spurred by government stimulus in 2009 and a population that strives to work and earn more to have higher living standards, demand for oil has grown rapidly in double digits. Imports, as a result, grew ~10% from 2008 to China's growth isn't enough While China stepped up its oil import, it wasn't enough to fill falling U.S. imports. With the exception of 2010, when the United States imported more oil as its economy recovered, the remaining three years have consistently led to lower imports than China can soak up. The EIA estimates that the country will become the largest producer of crude oil within the next few years, knocking countries such as Russia and Saudi Arabia off the top chart. China's golden age of investment-led economic growth is now history, and as the country opens up to more consumption, how may oil consumption be affected? With tanker stocks falling more than 80% from 2008, and China now a larger player in the world's oil shipment market, will the downtrend reverse or continue? The following indicators will help us understand the demand prospects of companies such as Frontline Ltd. (FRO), Teekay Tankers Ltd. (TNK), Nordic American Tanker Ltd. (NAT), and, to an extent, Tsakos Energy Navigation Ltd. (TNP) and the Guggenheim Shipping ETF (SEA) over the next few months.( Market Realist) Rising dollar creates fuel cost worries for shipping companies The falling rupee may bring more export business for the shipping lines, with Indian goods getting a competitive edge in the international market. Shipping companies which are already reeling under subdued freight rates and oversupply of vessels are worried over rising fuel costs as the dollar becomes more expensive. Shipping Corporation of India, for the first time has decided in its board meeting to go for partial bunker hedging. We will start with a small percentage and then increase the amount we will hedge gradually, said Sunil Thapar, director- bunker and tanker division, Shipping Corporation of India. While most companies feel that they are hedged against the currency crisis since the sector deals in dollars only. However, because the outgo is also in dollars, the rupee depreciation has not meant huge benefits. The currency depreciation has created woes for coastal shipping, since most of the revenue is incurred in rupees, while the costs are in dollars. The returns in coastal shipping are suffering. The overall coast of logistics is going up since the port charges are in dollars, said Anil Devli, president, Indian National Shipowners Association. For coastal shipping, there is an added challenge as far as bunker goes. The increase in price of high speed diesel has made it less competitive to the road transportation which has subsidized diesel. This has also discouraged new entrants from venturing into coastal shipping. It is not a flourishing business, a senior port sector analyst said. Last week, rupee plunged to a low of 66 per dollar mark. The rupee has lost more than 16% against the dollar so far in making it the worst performer by far among Asian emerging market currencies, according to Reuters.(BusinessStandard) Suez Canal Project to Attract Foreign Investments Chairman of the Suez Canal Authority Mohab Memish said that the project of Suez Canal Axis will be developed in a way that allows accelerating the growth rate in the region as well as attracting Arab and foreign investments to take part in the implementation of the project. He said that the name of Suez Canal project will be changed to the Two Poles referring to Ain Sokhna Port, where the first phase of the project kicks off, and Port Said harbor, where the project ends. Memish added that the next period will witness a major role for the Suez Canal Authority after drafting the required legislations on this score, noting that a legislative amendment is underway to give the Authority a full supervision over the project.

3 Sale & Purchase Greek interests still after big and modern tonnage This week, buying interest and the majority of reported sales are for modern units, especially for the bigger sizes. One 2010 built capesize bulker changed hands this week, with further details on this deal expected to come to light shortly. Other than that, 2 modern Kamsarmaxes, namely the 2005 built Ocean Lord and the 2010 Built Stefania Lembo went to Greek buyers for excess $18 mill and $22.7 mill. respectively, with the second one sold at an auction. Moreover, Greek interests are behind the sale of the 2004 built Panamax Belgrano, which fetched a price of $16.5 mill., while the older C. Journey was reported sold to Chinese buyers for $7.4 mill. What is worth mentioning this week, is the firm price that two 1996 built 4 ho/ha handies fetched this week (both were sold for high $5 mill.), catching the market by surprise, despite last week s extremely interesting sale of the ID Harbour. In the wet sector, two modern Aframaxes were sold to Greek and Singapore based buyers, with Greek interests snapping up both the 2006 built MR Tanker Twinkle Express for $20 mill., as well as the 1990 built MR Tanker Champion Pioneer for $5.4 mill. Shiptrade s enquiry index has once again shown a considerable increase, this time of about 25%. In the dry sector, enquiries for handysize bulkers continued their upward trend, gaining another 30% this week, with those for Handymaxes and Supramaxes following the same direction. The relevant index for Panamaxes gained almost one third this week, while interest for capesize bulkers increased by about 22%. Tankers seem to attract additional interest, up by about 22% in total on a week-to-week basis. MR Tankers relevant index is further strengthened compared to last week by about 30%, while in the Panamax sector, interest continues to be virtually absent. Enquiries for aframaxes have continued their townward trend for yet another week, still at single-digit levels, while we have nothing to comment on the interest for Suezmaxes and VLCCS, which remains at very low levels. NEWBUILDINGS In the newbuilding market we have seen 16 vessels to have been contracted. 8 Bulk Carriers (Ultramax) 8 Tankers (VLCC, MR) DEMOLITION The situation in the sub-continent remains to be far from encouraging, despite the appointment of a new Reserve Bank of India governor, with the purpose of stabilizing the currency, with the Indian Rupee slightly recovering at levels of 66 to the USD as the week ended. However, with levels for bulkers in India around 360/ldt, it is quite difficult for owners of vintage units to consider selling. In Bangladesh, no deals were reported this week, reflecting the continuously troubling period the local market is going through, with tonnage bought by cash buyers either remaining unsold or renegotiated. The Pakistani market followed the same path, with the Pakistani Rupee continuing to be a source of concern, however, due to the fact that local steel prices have not faced the volatility of India and Bangladesh, as well as the one of demand still being there, some expect this market to be increasingly involved in buying units, both in the short as well as the long term. Activity and focus shifted to the East for yet another week and China in particular, which is nowadays the best paying recycling market, with Chinese buyers securing tonnage at impressive levels, comparable with, if not in some cases ahead of those offered in the sub-continent. 2
