Sohmen: Stop så med at bestille nye skibe

Så klart er budskabet fra en af de mest respekterede ledere i shippingverden, mangemilliardæren Dr Helmut Sohmen, der er bestyrelsesformand for den i Hong Kong baserede BW Group.

”Markederne er helt forfærdelige”, siger Helmut Sohmen til Maritime CEO.

”Flere og flere redere håber på håb”, siger Sohmen, der venter at den nuværende nedtur vil vare i 2 - 3 år endnu.

”Vi vil ikke kontrahere nye skibe”, siger Sohmen, der heller ikke tror på de nye eco-skibe.

”Teknologien udvikler sig hurtigt. Når vi om nogle år igen ser bedre tider, er de skibe vi i dag opfatter som eco-skibe måske allerede forældede”, siger Sohmen.

Helmut Sohmen understreger, at han er meget imod de mange ny skibsordrer, og han forstår ikke at bankerne låner penge ud til nye skibe.

”Af en eller anden grund låner bankerne penge ud til nybygning af skibe, på trods af, at der allerede er en klar overkapacitet”, siger Sohmen.

”Enten har de ikke sat sig ordentligt ind i markedsforholdene, ellers også tænker de mere på sig selv end på deres kunder. Men uanset hvad, så skal de ikke regne med at se os i deres banker”, siger Helmut Sohmen.
