NO 38 19 SEPTEMBER 2011 With more and more vessels currently being delivered and shipyards in Asia resuming work after the summer holiday period, shipbuilding orders and deliveries are expected to increase, said a report from British shipbroker Clarksons. In Korea there remains a number of outstanding options that are due to be declared over the forthcoming months - and this will have a bearing on how Korean appetite evolves, the report said. With the major yards having a good level of forward coverage now, pressure to continue to book business at cost competitive levels is somewhat diminished. However, potential lapsed production intensive options may free up capacity and create opportunities - and this will be something to watch. In China, newbuilding capacity for 2013 continues to remain relatively abundant. State yards will drive price in the short term, as they attempt to fill outstanding forward capacity - and we anticipate that there will be a pocket of opportunity for owners to secure competitively priced tonnage from quality facilities, it said. Private Chinese yards continue to struggle and it seems likely that Chinese shipbuilding capacity is poised to go through a major period of consolidation - as these yards fail to secure new business and struggle to compete at required levels, said Clarksons. Brazilian mining company Vale is negotiating the sale or lease of the 19 very large ore carriers (VLOCs) that it has ordered from Chinese and South Korean shipyards, including orders for vessels not yet built. The move could reduce newbuilding demand for large new bulk carriers, brokers said. The fleet was designed to transport ore from the company s terminals in Brazil to Asia. The vessels were ordered at a total cost of US$2.35 billion in an effort to lower Vale s international freight costs, which had been reducing profit margins. During 2008, the average price for mines paid for shipment of iron ore was over US$50 a tonne, reaching a peak of US$105 a tonne. But in 2010, even with the high demand for iron ore in international markets, freight costs did not exceed US$40 a tonne and the average price remained below US$30 a tonne. The first of the vessels arrived in Brazil in May. It is the largest VLOC in the world with capacity of 400,000 dwt and is one of seven ordered from South Korea s Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering for US$748 million. Vale also has orders for another 12 ships from Rongsheng Shipbuilding and Heavy Industries in China for a total investment of US$1.6 billion. In addition to the 19-strong fleet of 400,000 dwt vessels, Vale has ordered another 16 ships with the same dimensions that will operate exclusively for the company in long-term contracts signed with shipbuilders. All 35 ships should be delivered by 2013. Rio de Janeiro-based Vale is the world s largest iron ore producer and exporter. French naval yard DCNS and South African group KND have signed a memorandum of understanding for the promotion, construction and sale of offshore patrol vessels (OPVs) in South Africa. DCNS and KND have signed a partnership agreement to promote, build and sell type Gowind vessels. The Gowind OPV is used for maritime safety, security and anti-piracy missions. Following visits by DCNS and KND to each other s facilities, the two naval shipbuilders quickly recognised the major benefits of forming a partnership, the two yards said in a statement. The purpose of the agreement is to win new OPV contracts, first in South Africa and subsequently in other sub-saharan African nations. This memorandum of understanding reflects DCNS s commitment to longterm partnership with KND in order to meet the requirements of the South African Navy as closely as possible, said Mr Pierre Legros, Senior Vice President Surface Ships and Naval Systems, DCNS. DCNS has designed and developed a new range of ships for maritime safety and security missions, including the Gowind ocean patrol vessel. Construction of the first-of-class Gowind OPV, named L Adroit, began in France in May 2010. The vessel is scheduled for handover to the French Navy ARINE RENEWABLES +++ CO 2 SEQUESTRATION +++ ENERGY STORAGE +++ OIL&GAS +++ DEEPSEA MINING +++ MARINE RENEWABLES +++ CO 2 SEQUESTRATION +++ ENERGY STORAGE +++ Who should attend Business Offshore Conference?
