US cold blast pulls LPG shipping rates further down

US cold blast pulls LPG shipping rates further down

LPG shipping is expected to face more headwinds in 2021 after a volatile first two months of the year. As we move deeper into 1Q21, China’s LPG demand has resumed after the Lunar Holidays in early February, aiding the plunging rates to find some floor. However, the cold wave in the US and further production cuts in the Middle East will squeeze LPG supply in 1H21; this will put downward pressure on LPG shipping rates.

Ports & terminals - What is driving M&As and capital market activity?

Ports & terminals - What is driving M&As and capital market activity?

After grinding to a halt in the aftermath of the global financial crisis, M&A activity in the port sector has been growing. Abundant liquidity has led the port companies to not only strengthen their balance sheets but also to grow and enter new territories. We have already seen strong recovery in port companies’ valuations. From here on, sustained growth in valuation will require companies to deliver strong results not only in the upcoming quarters but also in the foreseeable future.

Seafarer supply is expected to tighten heralding higher manning costs

The attractiveness of a career at sea has been an industry concern for a number of years. Long periods away from home, increasing administrative demands for paperwork on board, and the threat of criminalisation being major factors. Covid-19 impacts, which have been particularly harrowing for seafarers, have added to these issues, presaging an inflection point in global seafarer supply.

LPG shipping rates: the rise… and the fall

LPG shipping rates: the rise… and the fall

LPG shipping rates have seen what can only be called a dramatic start to the year. The steep gains, followed by the freefall have dwarfed the volatility seen in 2020. As we move deeper into 1Q21, and China comes back into the picture after a long holiday, we do expect rates to find some floor. Meanwhile, the stock prices which are otherwise highly correlated, have shown remarkable resilience, seemingly immune to the recent fluctuations in the spot market.
