Clarksons Research has more good news for shipowners this year, with many basking in strong or even record markets.
Managing director Steve Gordon said most shipping sectors remain in positive territory, despite an easing of overall conditions.
In the UK company’s six-month review, the boss said the cross-sector ClarkSea Index of major rates averaged a healthy $24,119 per day in the first half, down 38% year on year but still 40% above the 10-year trend.
