Seasure Market Report 10 March 2023 | Hellenic Shipping News Worldwide
Tanker market does not seem to have let up too much. Prior week, FRO mgmt suggested China was back to > 10 MM bbls in imports. There is also suggestions that China’s imports are from further away i.e. Russia instead of Iran. Tanker side looks good - dirty, clean, LNG (though spot trades might be easing off)
