Mooi stukje waar ik me wel in kan vinden. Je vergeet een ding, transport van olie is niet gratis. Je bent afhankelijk van shipping rates. Die kunnen $60,000 per dag zijn maar ook een stuk hoger zie hieronder.
A surge in demand to ship the flood of crude oil unleashed by Saudi Arabia and its Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) peers sent freight rates surging last week.
Saudi’s National Shipping firm, Bahri, snatched up dozens of tankers mostly for late-March crude oil loadings.
Last week Bahri booked the Sea Splendor VLCC tanker for over $350,000 per day to ship Saudi crude oil to the U.S. Gulf, a possible record for that route, according to ship broker data.
Rates along that route have since eased to about $270,000, or roughly $13 per barrel of oil shipped, according to the latest ship broking data on Tuesday, but remain well above average.
“If the Saudis export the numbers they are promising to again in April, then all bets are off and freight rates will continue to rise,” said Sharma.
