Tanker market report dated 15 February 2019

2019 has already started out as a busy year in terms of tanker ordering activity with VLCCs and MRs once again appearing to be in vogue. So far this year, at least 12 VLCCs and 11 MRs have been contracted. Both asset classes also received the most interest in 2018, with 42 and 49 units being ordered respectively. Now, the question is, was the start of 2019 just a blip or a sign of things to come?

The weekly tanker market report by Gibson Shipbrokers features an overview of the crude oil and oil product tanker market.
