Pakistan lagged behind both Indian and Bangladesh markets
for another week, as they struggled to compete on prices with their
sub-continent neighbors.
For that reason, they lost out on their share of the market
tonnage and there was some doubt as to whether they could even compete with Bangladesh
for those VLCCs on the market, once cleaning costs considered for hot works.
Demand remains healthy and buyers are certainly emerging
for new units (particularly tankers gas free for man entry), but the currency
continues to frustrate and prices are subsequently being held back as a result.
