Three owners and operators locked kamsarmax bulkers into charters of around a year or more on Monday, adding to a flurry of period dealmaking in the segment.
As kamsarmaxes dominate period charters reported by the Baltic Exchange, Monday’s fixtures come after at least four of the ships were locked into deals of 10 months or more last week.
Oslo-listed Western Bulk Chartering has locked in KC Maritime Hong Kong’s 81,900-dwt Darya Ma (built 2011) for a year at just under $17,200 per day, Baltic Exchange data showed.
