Tariffs for Handysize and Coaster vessels increase amid soaring bunker fuel prices
The first week of spring brought a new wave of uncertainty to the Black Sea freight market.
The hostilities in the Middle East have caused a sharp increase in bunker prices, forcing shipowners in all segments to revise their freight offers upwards.
In most cases, owners are now demanding around $2-4 per ton more, depending on the route, to compensate for the increase in fuel costs. As a result, Ukrainian charterers are facing increasing difficulties in securing tonnage as the widening gap between supply and demand slows down negotiations, leaving overall pricing activity during the reporting week quite limited.
