Markt für Feederschiffe stabilisiert sich

摘要

The containership time charter market is showing diverging fortunes among small and larger vessels, with panamax and post panamax types quickly shedding the gains made earlier this year while feeder ship rates are trending more stable. Smaller geared ships have become scarce in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean, allowing owners to push rate levels up in a number of cases. Modern energy-efficient handy containerships are also achieving healthy premiums across the globe, as illustrated by the geared 1,756 TEU ?Tzini? which fixed a twelve month period with CMA CGM affiliate Cheng Lie at a reported 8,900 $ per day - some 2,500 $ more than standard Wenchong types are fixing at today. Short term prospects for panamax and postpanamax vessels, on the other hand, are depressed due to capacity cuts by liner operators on a number of mainline and regional trades. Especially panamax vessels in the Atlantic find themselves in a tight spot, being forced to accept rates that are 1,000 $ lower than in Asia to secure employment.%Die Containerschifffahrt bietet zu Jahresende ein gespaltenes Bild, das an die Situation Anfang 2010 erinnert: Die Linienreeder fahren allm?hlich wieder Gewinne ein - jedenfalls wiesen die meisten von ihnen im dritten Quartal positive Betriebsergebnisse aus, nachdem die Frachtraten im zweiten Quartal anzogen. Die Tramp-Reeder bzw. die Schiffsgesellschaften kommen im Chartergesch?ft hingegen auf keinen grünen Zweig. Um rund ein Drittel sind die Charterraten quer über alle Gr??enklassen dieses Jahr gegenüber 2011 eingebrochen.
