Industry News In January, the price of Brent crude continued the trend of recent months, declining 23% m-o-m to an average of $49.1/bbl. However, in February, prices have recovered slightly, averaging just below $6/bbl. The marginal recovery in crude prices has thought to be have been partially driven by reports of large numbers of US drilling rigs being idled, suggesting US tight oil production growth may slow in the near future. Total oil demand is projected to increase 1.% y-o-y in 215, to stand at 92.8m bpd. In the US, the world s largest oil consumer, oil demand is expected to rise 1% y-o-y to 19.2m bpd. The low oil price, coupled with relatively robust economic growth, is expected to partially support this increase. However, the general OECD oil demand picture remains negative in 215, with a shaky economic recovery and increased energy efficiency in Europe and Japan continuing to depress oil demand. OECD Oil Demand 21-215(f) 55 5 45 4 35 3 m bpd Source: CRSL 21 23 215f In spite of the recent decline in crude prices, global oil supply is projected to rise 1.7% y-o-y to 93.7m bpd in 215. Total Middle Eastern oil production is expected to increase 1% y-o-y to 28.m bpd, driven largely by increased output in Iraq and U.A.E. In U.A.E. oil production growth of around 5% is projected, largely supported by the ramp-up in production of the Umm-al Lulu field, which started in production in October 214. Meanwhile, Iraqi production growth is also expected to reach around 5%, driven by a ramp-up in production at several fields which came online in 214. In January, the Iraqi oil minister announced that Iraqi crude production reached a record 4m bpd in December, and indicated that the increase would help the country to compensate for the recent fall in oil prices. The Iraqi government expects to boost crude exports significantly in 215, partly supported by increased volumes from Kurdistan. Despite this aim, volumes exported from Iraq in January reportedly dropped by 14% m-o-m, with the decrease largely attributed to bad weather around the country s southern oil terminals during the month. Towards the start of February, seven refineries and two chemical plants in the US were affected by union strikes. Approximately 1% of US refinery capacity was initially affected by the largest union action in the sector since 198. Talks between the United Steelworkers Union and the refiners have been ongoing, although no resolution has yet been reached. By late February, the strikes had spread to around 15 petrochemical facilities, 12 of which are refineries which together account for around 2% of US refinery capacity. Many refiners have reportedly brought in non-union labour to enable the plants to continue operating, limiting the effect on overall production levels so far. Meanwhile, in February, the US Congress voted in favour of the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. The proposed pipeline will have a capacity of.8m bpd, allowing crude oil from the tar sands producing region of Alberta to be transported to the US Gulf. However, President Obama has stated he will veto the bill, partly due to environmental concerns. It was announced in February that Chinese crude imports averaged 6.6m bpd in January 215. This equates to approximately 5.9m bpd of crude transported via sea during the month, compared to 5.6m bpd in full year 214. In 215, Chinese seaborne crude imports are projected to rise 7% y-o-y to stand at 6.1m bpd.

Clarkson Research Services Page 2 Feb-15 215f In February, it was announced that liquidators of Dynamic Oil Trading (DOT), owned by the bankrupt OW Bunker, are seeking to recover an estimated $329m in debt owed to the company. One of the most notable debts is that owed by Tankoil, who reportedly received $124m in credit from DOT. Overall, the company is owed an estimated $198m by more than 1 unsecured creditors. This follows news that liquidators had struck a deal to facilitate payment of bills owed by OW Bunker, mainly to creditors. Losses at DOT sparked the OW group to file for bankruptcy last year. In January there were several reported instances of owners switching bulkcarrier newbuilding orders for tanker orders. For example, Sincere Navigation switched an order for two Capesizes for one 319, dwt VLCC at Shanghai Waigaoqiao for delivery in 217. In the products tanker sector, Scorpio reportedly converted an order for two Capesizes to two 114,9 dwt LR2s at Daehan Shipbuilding, with delivery scheduled for early 216. A number of other similar discussions are reportedly underway, although yards are unlikely to accept such changes if construction or material procurement has already begun. 1.4 1.2 1..8.6.4.2.

Scorpio took delivery of two MRs of 5,133 dwt and 5,145 dwt as well as a further two 38,734 dwt product carriers. Meanwhile, in the crude sector, four Suezmaxes between 152, dwt and 159,5 dwt were delivered during the month, including one shuttle tanker owned by Knutsen NYK.

While earnings in the crude tanker spot markets have eased slightly over recent weeks, they remain at relatively elevated levels, with recent limited supply growth contributing to the tighter market environment. Overall, crude tanker fleet growth is expected to remain relatively slow in 215, at just 1.2%, with VLCC fleet growth projected to reach 2.%. However, crude tanker deliveries are expected to accelerate notably in 216. This is expected to lead to a faster pace of fleet expansion next year, of around 6% in the VLCC sector and 4% in the Suezmax sector. In the short-term, deadweight demand in the crude tanker sector is expected to increase moderately, with an increase of around 2% projected in 215. This pace of growth would represent the fastest expansion in three years, supported by strong Chinese and Indian crude import demand. In 215, product tanker deadweight demand is expected to increase by around 4%, the fastest pace of growth in several years, with growth partly supported by increased long-haul shipments in the larger vessel sectors. Products trade growth is also expected to be driven by rising imports into developing regions, particularly Latin America and Africa. Although overall demand growth is expected to improve compared to 214, supply pressures remain present. Overall product tanker fleet growth is accelerating, and is projected to reach 5.8% in 215, faster than projected growth in demand. This could lead to continued pressure on the sector, with expansion of 11% expected in the LR2 fleet, and 6% in the 1-59,999 dwt sector. Total Supply 1% 4% % 2% 3% STEADY...

This represents the highest monthly average since October 28 and is over twice the annual average for 214, which stood at $27,315/day. Meanwhile, the average one year timecharter rate rose 28% m-o-m to $46,6/day, on the back of high levels of enquiry, especially regarding fixing tankers for oil storage, so as to take advantage of the contango in crude prices. Towards the start of January there was a relatively high level of activity in the MEG and as a consequence rates on several routes ex-meg were relatively firm. For example, the rate on the Gulf-India route averaged WS 13 during January. However, towards the end of the month, charterers managed to place downward pressure on rates as activity declined somewhat. Meanwhile, the West African market was generally subdued throughout January, creating difficult conditions for owners. The January average lumpsum rate on the WAF-India route decreased 7% m-o-m to $4.92m, as a result of weak market conditions. Meanwhile, the monthly average rate on the WAF-East route stood at WS 66. At the start of February it was expected that the number of unfixed VLCCs entering the MEG, WAF and the North Sea during the month would decrease slightly.

This is partially supported by projected VLCC crude trade on the WAF-Far East/India routes rising by 9% to 1.8m bpd. Both China and India have strengthened trade relations with exporters in the region at a time when total WAF-US crude trade is diminishing. Meanwhile, crude VLCC trade on the Caribs-China/India routes is expected to increase 1% y-o-y to 1.4m bpd in 215. China has invested relatively heavily in the region through so-called loan for oil deals, which are expected to support overall Caribs-China crude trade. Meanwhile, Indian companies have developed closer ties with several producers, signing long-term export deals. This trend is expected to support VLCC crude trade on the relatively long-haul Caribs- India route rising 9% y-o-y in 215. At the end of January 214, the VLCC fleet stood at 635 vessels of a combined 195.2m dwt. The active VLCC fleet is projected to increase by around 2% during 215, with deliveries expected to total around 5.2m dwt, which would represent the lowest level in 17 years. However, following greater contracting levels in and 214, VLCC deliveries are projected to pick up significantly in 216 to 13.7m dwt. This is expected to lead to VLCC fleet growth accelerating in 216 to around 6% in terms of capacity, which would represent the fastest pace of expansion since.

Meanwhile, the monthly average one and three year Suezmax timecharter rates remained steady m-o-m at $32,/day and $3,/day respectively. These represent the highest monthly averages since August 21. In West Africa, January was generally an active month, although rates did not surge on the back of this. However, firm levels of VLCC timecharter activity did lend some support to the Suezmax market in the region towards the end of the month. The monthly average rate on the WAF-Med route stood at WS 94 in January whilst the rate on the WAF-USAC route stood at WS 93. In the European market, enquiry was generally more subdued than in WAF. However, towards the end of the month, high levels of enquiry in the Aframax market helped to support Suezmax rates in the Med, although this momentum could not be sustained. As a result, the monthly average rate on the cross-med route stood at WS 1 whilst the rate on the Black Sea-Med route averaged WS 12. At the start of February it was expected that the number of unfixed Suezmaxes entering WAF, the Mediterranean and the North Sea during the month would decrease.

Suezmax crude trade on the AG-India route is expected to increase 15% y-o-y in 215, following an 8% y-o-y rise in 214. The continued expansion of Indian refinery capacity is expected to support overall Indian crude imports, a significant proportion of which is likely to be sourced from producers in the AG. However, it is expected that crude Suezmax trade on the Caribs-North America route will decline 7% y-o-y in 215. US crude production is expected to expand further in 215, whilst several Caribbean producers are projected to reduce shipments. Meanwhile, dirty petroleum products trade on Suezmaxes is expected to continue to lend further support to overall Suezmax deadweight demand in 215. By the end of 215, the Suezmax fleet is expected to have increased by 1% y-o-y, following a decline in 214, to stand at 76.7m dwt. Of the 1.6m dwt on order at the start of 215, just 1.5m dwt is expected to be delivered in full year 215. Demolition is expected to remain at relatively low levels of around.6m dwt, reflecting both the improved market environment and the relatively low proportion of the fleet that is aged over 2 years (with only 3% of Suezmax tonnage aged over 2 years at the start of February). Fleet growth is projected to accelerate to 4% in 216, following three years of very limited expansion.

This is almost double the annual average for 214 and three times greater than earnings in. In the timecharter market, one and three year rates remained steady m-o-m at $23,/day in January, slightly greater than the annual average for both and 214. In Northern Europe, January began relatively brightly, with some of the tonnage list being cleared out towards the start of the month, leaving tonnage and enquiry finely balanced. However, this did not last and an ample tonnage list depressed rates towards the end of the month. Overall, the rate on the cross-ukc route averaged WS 121 in January. In the Med, the market was generally weaker than in the Baltic and UKC. However, during the middle of the month there was a surge in enquiry which supported significant w-o-w rate increases on the cross-med route, although this was not sustained. Overall, the monthly average rate on the cross-med route stood at WS 112 in January. At the start of February it was expected that the number of unfixed Aframaxes entering both the North Sea and Caribbean during the month would fall. No of Fixtures No of Vessels, start TIGHTER...

In 214, crude Aframax deadweight demand is estimated to have declined 3.6% y-o-y. A decrease of 2.1% y-o-y is projected for crude Aframax deadweight demand in 215, partially as a result of an expected 9% y-o-y decline in AG-Asia/Australia crude Aframax trade. The impending closure of the Bulwer refinery in Brisbane, Australia is expected to suppress total crude imports to the country, a significant proportion of which is shipped from the AG. Meanwhile, crude Aframax trade is expected to increase by 3% y-o-y on the intra Far East routes, largely driven by an expected rise in Chinese imports of crude from smaller Asian producers as well as from Eastern Russia. In 214, seaborne crude exports from Russia to China rose 26% y-o-y and it is expected that volumes on this route will continue to rise in 215, lending support to crude Aframax trade in the region. The total Aframax fleet is projected to increase 3% y-o-y by the end of 215, largely on the back of additions to the LR2 product tanker fleet. Total Aframax deliveries are projected to reach 4.m dwt in 215, with the vast majority of these expected to be LR2s. Meanwhile, scrapping is projected to total 1.4m dwt and is generally expected to affect the crude fleet more significantly than coated Aframax tonnage. The active crude Aframax fleet is expected to shrink by.8% during 215.

Previously to this, dirty monthly average spot earnings had not breached the $3,/day mark since December 28, when they stood at $36,134/day. Average spot earnings in January 215 were almost three times higher than the annual average and significantly greater than the 214 average. In the European market, available tonnage remained limited throughout much of January, which helped to support good market conditions for owners. Coupled with this, there was a relatively high level of enquiry towards the start of the month, further supporting rates on routes ex- Europe. For example, the average rate on the UKC-USG route stood at WS 146 in January, whilst the rate on the Med-USG route averaged WS 144. In the Caribbean market, January started relatively weakly, with ample available tonnage and low enquiry. However, this situation did not persist throughout the month as activity picked up, thinning out the tonnage list in the region and supporting rates in the Caribbean. Overall, the monthly average rate on the Caribs-USG route stood at WS 145. Meanwhile, on the other side of Latin America, the rate on the WCSA-USAC route averaged WS 135.

Bpd / M. Dwt Forecast Uncoated Panamax deadweight demand is expected to continue to decline in 215. Crude oil volumes traded on Panamaxes on the Caribs North America route have come under significant pressure in recent years, falling by around 3% in 214 alone, as the US has continued to reduce dependence on imported crude oil. However, uncoated Panamaxes have continued to trade some volumes of dirty petroleum products, mostly on routes into the US from Europe. Overall, the crude Panamax tanker fleet is expected to continue to decline in 215, by around 2%, to reach 5.5m dwt by the end of the year. The uncoated Panamax fleet has now shrunk by around 4% compared to its peak size at the end of 26. Around 95% of orders placed in the Panamax size sector since the end of 26 have been for coated LR1 product tankers, while the majority of vessels scrapped have been uncoated tankers. However, demolition in the sector is expected to remain relatively low in the short-term. The LR1 tanker fleet is relatively modern, with only 4% of tonnage aged over 15 years (and 2% over 2 years), while only a few elderly uncoated Panamaxes remain in the fleet (8 vessels are currently aged over 2 years, around 9% of the fleet). Overall, the LR1 tanker fleet is projected to remain fairly steady in 215, but growth is likely to accelerate in 216, with 1.7m dwt projected to be delivered.

It is expected that the majority of growth will be driven by imports into Asia. In 215, Asian crude imports are currently expected to increase 3% to stand at 19.7m bpd, accounting for 54% of total seaborne crude imports, largely on the back of increased Chinese and Indian imports. The continued expansion of Indian refinery capacity this year is expected to support Indian crude imports rising 4% to 4.m bpd. Meanwhile, continued demand for importing crude oil at relatively lower prices is expected to support Chinese import volumes this year. However, Japanese crude imports are expected to decline 2% y-o-y to 3.4m bpd. The Japanese refinery sector has come under significant pressure in recent years and there have been further calls for consolidation and capacity cuts. As a result, it is expected that Japanese refiners are likely to continue to be largely outcompeted by more modern plants elsewhere in Asia and the Middle East. Meanwhile, total EU crude imports are projected to decline 1% y-o-y to 8.4m bpd. Although lower oil prices are likely to aid European refiners margins, declining oil demand across the region is expected to continue to suppress European crude import requirements in 215. 1 8 6 4 8 6 4 2 7 6 5 4 US Imports By Region m. bpd N & W Africa m. bpd Caribs/L.

Several South American producers, most notably Venezuela, are expected to be significantly affected by the decline in oil prices, limiting their ability to invest further in the oil sector. Brazilian crude exports are expected to fall 1% y-o-y to.5m bpd, in spite of a relatively positive production outlook. The projected decline in Brazilian crude exports is largely as a result of increased domestic refinery capacity, which is likely to take a significant volume of Brazilian crude off the export market. Elsewhere, seaborne exports from the FSU are projected to decline 1% y-o-y to 4.9m bpd. Although Russian production is expected to remain relatively steady in 215, difficulties surrounding western sanctions are likely to suppress crude export levels. Similarly, tax incentives to refine crude domestically and then export it are expected to have an impact. Meanwhile, total exports from the North Sea are projected to remain steady y-o-y at 1.9m bpd in 215, with UK exports declining 1% y-o-y to.6m bpd. This reflects the expectation that relatively high cost production across several of the more mature fields in the North Sea may be adversely affected by the recent decline in the price of oil.

The Oil Tanker Fleet & Orderbook Oil & Tanker Trades Outlook Fleet Definitions Tanker Fleet Data, Start Feb-15 The total tanker fleet and orderbook, as broken down in the following seven pages is the aggregate of crude, products, chemical and other specialised tankers for each size range. The definition for those sub-sectors is laid out below. Crude tankers are defined as all uncoated tankers above 6, dwt and are used in the transportation of crude oil and also dirty petroleum products. (Note Suezmax supply analysis on pages 3 and 7 includes coated Suezmaxes). Product tankers are defined as tankers suitable for the carriage of refined petroleum products and include: o Coated non-imo graded tankers o All IMO III tankers o IMO II tankers of 3,-59,999 dwt which meet the criteria: average tank size >3, cbm and tanks <75% segregated (excluding tankers with any stainless steel tanks) o Uncoated non-imo graded tankers 1,- 59,999 dwt o Excludes any specialised tankers. Note: Product Tanker supply analysis on pages 3 & 25 includes 1,-119,999 dwt product tankers only. Chemical tankers are defined as tankers that are suitable for chemical trades, including chemical parcel and chemical bulk tankers. Total chemical tanker fleet includes IMO I tankers, stainless steel tankers not designated as specialised tankers, tankers of an unknown IMO grade and IMO II tankers (excluding those 3,-59,999 dwt with an average tank size > 3, cbm and tanks <75% segregated, which are classed as product tankers). The other specialised tanker fleet includes tankers designed for the carriage of specialist liquids (other than chemical tankers) such as asphalt and bitumen tankers, water carriers, waste disposal carriers, molten sulphur tankers, methanol carriers, and wine and juice carriers. 6 55 5 45 4 35 3 The Oil Tanker Fleet & Orderbook m.dwt Orderbook as % Fleet Chemical/Other Specialised Tanker Fleet Product Tanker Fleet 5% 4% 3% 2% No. m.

Saudi Arabia-based Bahri, who own a diverse fleet including 35 oil tankers of a combined 9.9m dwt following a merger with Saudi Aramco s Vela last year, reported profits of $32.9m (SAR 123.4m) in Q4 214. This is down from SAR 28.3m in Q3 214, largely reflecting a significant decline in contributions from Petredec, who own eight LPG carriers and are 3% owned by Bahri. However, Bahri s reported operating profit increased by 47% q-o-q, supported by higher tanker rates. It was announced in January that Tankships Investment, led by George Economou, has filed for a US IPO aimed at raising $15m. It is reported that if the listing is successful, the company will take control of ten ships currently owned by DryShips and Cardiff Marine, both overseen by Economou. Furthermore, Tankships will also move to take a further three Suezmax newbuildings from other businesses related to Economou. Tankships recently reported revenue of $151m in the 12 months to end September 214.

Clarkson Research Services Page 17 Ext. Period D/C Timecharter Developments Date During January there was significant interest in chartering VLCCs for periods of around 6-12 months, in many cases reportedly to store crude oil after a relatively steep contango in the crude oil price developed. However, this increased level of interest and the continued firmness in the spot market contributed to VLCC timecharter rates firming notably throughout the month, which in combination with a lessening of the steepness of the oil price contango reduced interest in storage activities into February. Interest in fixing tankers for storage was only focussed in the VLCC sector, given the greater economies of scale and lower cost per barrel of storing oil than on relatively smaller crude tankers. The oil price contango would need to steepen further before it would appear to be economically viable to store crude on a Suezmax tanker. Overall, benchmark 1 year VLCC timecharter rates increased 28% m-o-m to average $46,6/day in January, but have eased back slightly during the first few weeks of February. Average one and three year timecharter rates in all other crude tanker sectors remained steady m-o-m in January. Meanwhile, the average one year timecharter rate for an LR1 tanker rose marginally in January to $19,65/day, up by 2% m-o-m. This represents the fifth consecutive m-o-m increase, and the highest monthly average rate since April, with the rate having risen by around 3% since mid-214. Meanwhile, the average one year MR timecharter rate fell marginally m-o-m in January to stand at $15,25/day. Feb-15

Meanwhile, it is expected that Latin American production will rise 1% to 7.2m bpd, largely on the back of increased output in Brazil where production is.7% projected to rise 4% to 2.2m bpd in 215. This is.4% expected to be partially driven by a ramp up of production.2% across several offshore pre-salt fields that commenced.% production in 214. Brazilian state-owned producer, Petrobras, recently announced that these fields remained -.7% financially viable at around $5/bbl. Russian oil output is currently expected to remain steady in 215 to stand at 11.m bpd. The projected lack of growth in Russian production is largely due to the continuation of western sanctions, which have affected the ability of several producers to continue to invest in sustaining high levels of output across several mature fields, notably in central Siberia. Elsewhere, total African production is projected to grow 3% to 8.6m bpd in 215. 26 28 21 214e 215f Trend & Producers 28 21 214 215 Outlook Nigeria 2.3 2.2 2.2 2.5 2.6 2.5 2.4 2.3 2.2 STEADY... -2% Libya 1.8 1.9 1.8 1.8.5 1.5 1..4.5 FIRMER... 4% Algeria 1.7 1.7 1.6 1.5 1.5 1.5 1.5 1.5 1.4 STEADY... -1% Angola 1.7 2. 1.9 1.9 1.8 1.8 1.9 1.9 1.9 STEADY... 3% Total Africa 1.3 1.4 1.3 1.5 9.1 9.8 9.1 8.4 8.6 STEADY... 3% Norway 2.3 2.2 2.1 1.9 1.8 1.6 1.5 1.6 1.6 STEADY... % UK 1.4 1.3 1.3 1.2 1..8.8.8.8 STEADY... -1% North Sea Total 4.1 3.9 3.7 3.4 3. 2.7 2.6 2.6 2.6 STEADY... % Russia 1.1 1. 1.2 1.5 1.7 1.7 1.9 11. 11.

A similar pace of growth is expected in 215, taking global refinery capacity to 99.2m bpd, largely driven by non-oecd expansion. Meanwhile, in the OECD, US refinery capacity stood at 18.m bpd at the end of 214, the largest capacity of any country globally. In the first 11 months of 214, US refinery utilisation averaged roughly 9%, representing a 2% y-o-y increase and the highest level since, when utilisation averaged 91%. Looking to 215, US refinery capacity is expected to increase marginally during the year. Elsewhere, Venezuelan refinery capacity is expected to stand at 1.3m bpd by the end of 215, representing the second greatest capacity of any Latin American country after Brazil. However, there have been a series of issues affecting the Venezuelan refinery sector in recent months. Towards the end of 214 there was a major blackout at the Amuay and Cardon refineries, which took 955, bpd of capacity offline for several days. In January 215, it was announced that the 146, bpd facility at El Palito will undergo major maintenance in 215, which is likely to take the plant offline for a significant proportion of the year. PDVSA have previously stated that they plan to double capacity at El Palito by 217.

In 215, total oil demand is projected to increase 1.% y-o-y, partially supported by growing Middle Eastern demand. In 215, oil demand in the Middle East is expected to rise 3% y-o-y, supported by expansion in the petrochemical industry and increased vehicle usage. Meanwhile, Japanese oil demand is projected to decline by 3% y-o-y, continuing the downward trend of the past few years. Japanese consumer demand was affected in 214 by an increase in sales tax, and demand is likely to remain under pressure in 215 as the economy continues to struggle. The Japanese petrochemical sector is also expected to continue to face difficulties, partially from competition from more efficient plants overseas. Elsewhere in Asia, Indian oil demand is projected to rise 4% y-o-y to 3.7m bpd. India is expected to continue to expand petrochemical activities in 215, which is projected to be a key driver of Indian oil demand growth this year. Partly on the back of Indian demand growth, total non-oecd demand is expected to increase 2% y-o-y in 215 to reach 47.3m bpd, marginally higher than total OECD demand.

However, gasoil demand in OECD North America rose 4% y-o-y in the same period, whilst gasoline demand increased by 2%. Demand for motor fuel reportedly increased strongly in October in the region, supporting significant m-o-m growth in gasoline and gasoil demand. Conversely, demand for gasoline and gasoil in OECD Europe was slightly lower in the first ten months of 214 compared to the same period in, partly due to increased vehicle efficiency. Meanwhile, naphtha demand in the region rose 2% y-o-y in the year to October 214. However, the closure of the Moerdijk cracker in the Netherlands in October, following a leak, is likely to have limited naptha demand to some extent towards the end of the year. Elsewhere, OECD Pacific products demand fell 3% y-o-y in the first ten months of 214. This was partly due to weak Japanese demand, for both residual fuel oil in power generation and fuels used in transport. Demand for gasoline (the most widely used fuel in Japanese cars) in the OECD Pacific region averaged 1.5m bpd in January-October 214, down 3% compared to the same period in.

Commentary Following an estimated increase of 2.% y-o-y in 214, seaborne products trade is expected to rise a further 3.4% y-o-y to 21.1m bpd in 215. Total European imports are expected to rise 2% y-o-y to 6.6m bpd, largely on the back of a weak refinery sector and further economic recovery in some European countries. Elsewhere, total North American products imports are expected to decline 3% y-o-y, on the back of a projected 5% y-o-y fall in US products imports. In spite of recent refinery strikes, domestic US refinery output is expected to continue to be supported by a glut of relatively cheap US-produced crude in the short-term, further limiting demand for imported products. Meanwhile, Canadian products imports are expected to rise 5% y-o-y in 215, partly on the back of increased imports of products for blending with heavy crude produced from tar sands. Elsewhere, products imports to Australia are projected to increase 8% y-o-y to.5m bpd, largely as a result of the impending closure of the.1m bpd Bulwer Island refinery. Korean products imports are projected to increase 3% y-o-y to.7m bpd this year. The relatively firm outlook for the Korean manufacturing industry, which uses significant quantities of oil products, as well as the petrochemical sector, is expected to support this increase. 7. 6. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1...8.7.6.5.4.3.2.1. m. bpd 26 US Imports by Region UKC Others Africa/Med Caribs/L.

Although US refiners are expected to continue to benefit from relatively cheap domestic crude, it is unlikely that they will be able to increase refinery throughput to a similar extent as in 214. Meanwhile, it is expected that Chinese products exports will rise 5% y-o-y in 215, on the back of continued firm refinery expansion and a slight slowdown in domestic Chinese oil demand growth. Chinese seaborne exports increased by around 3% in 214, driven largely by greater shipments on short-haul intra-asian routes. Japanese products exports are projected to soften slightly in 215, with Japanese refineries expected to continue to come under pressure from more efficient and modern plants elsewhere in Asia and the Middle East. Conversely, Indian products exports are expected to grow 4% y-o-y in 215, largely on the back of continued expansion of Indian refinery capacity, although volumes are reported to have eased moderately in 214. Elsewhere, seaborne products exports from the FSU are expected to rise 5% y-o-y to 3.1m bpd, partly supported by tax policies in Russia which are designed to encourage refiners to modernise their plants. 3. 2.5 2. 1.5 1.

Meanwhile, clean Handy spot earnings fell by 3% m-o-m to $31,987/day. In the timecharter market, the average one year LR1 timecharter rate increased by 2% m-o-m to $19,65/day. January was a mixed month in the LR2 market, with several swings in the market. For example, towards the start of the month, the LR2 tonnage list in the MEG was reduced significantly. Following this, the market softened on the back of limited activity, only to pick up again later in January. Meanwhile, the LR1 market was more subdued, with rates falling throughout much of January. The MR market was generally quiet during January, with rates in the Atlantic softening notably throughout the month. While the month started with high levels of activity in Northern Europe, an increase in rates was limited by a steady flow of tonnage to the region. Throughout the rest of the month, rates in the region continued to decline. At the start of February, it was expected that the number of unfixed product tankers entering the MEG and Baltic would decrease, whilst the number of product tankers entering Singapore would rise.

Dwt Forecast Total product tanker deadweight demand is projected to increase 4% y-o-y in 215, following an estimated 2% y-o-y rise in 214. Significant products trade growth is expected on routes out of the AG, especially to some Asian countries such as Japan, which significantly increased products imports from the AG during 214, at the expense of shorter-haul intra-asian volumes. Meanwhile, continued high levels of US refinery throughput, despite recent strike activity at a number of facilities, is expected to further suppress imports into the country, a notable proportion of which is typically sourced from Europe. While shipments out of the US in the short-term are expected to remain robust (particularly to South American nations), overall transatlantic products trade volumes are currently projected to soften slightly in 215. At the end of January 215, the product tanker fleet totalled 132.6m dwt. Product tanker fleet growth is expected to accelerate to 5.8% in 215, with 8.8m dwt of tonnage expected to be delivered in the full year. This includes more than 3m dwt of LR2 tonnage, which is expected to lead to an expansion of around 1% in the LR2 fleet during the year. A further 5.3m dwt of tonnage is projected to be delivered in the 1-6, dwt sector in 215. At the start of February, the total product tanker orderbook totalled 23.7m dwt, representing 18% of the fleet. Number & Value Number & Value 3 Month Trend M. Dwt M.
