Tank-flåde på vej med brændstof til USA

Op mod 40 tankere er klar til at tage turen over Atlanten med brændstof til det amerikanske marked, der er hårdt presset af orkanen Harvey´s hærgen i Texas. Raterne på transporten over Atlanten er steget med en faktor seks på en uge, skriver Financial Times.

Mere end en femtedel af USAs raffinaderi-kapacitet er sat ud af spillet af Harvey. Derfor har frygten for mangel på brændstof drevet priserne op med 20 pct. i løbet af den sidste uge til det højeste niveau i to år. Og derfor har oliehandlerne travlt med at skaffe nye reserver.

“Antallet af brændstoflaster, der bliver arrangeret stiger time for time. Alle kommer ind på markedet for at fragt brændstof fra Europa til USA, specielt til Østkysten, men også med optioner på at levere i Golften,” siger en mægler fra Gibson Shipbrokers i London til Financial Times.

Det har ifølge avisen drevet raterne op med en faktor seks i løbet af den sidste uge til mere end 20.000 dollar/dag i forhold til 3.500 dollar/dag for en uge siden.
