Freight Market Summary

  • Clean Tankers
    The U.S. Gulf clean product tanker market remains soft. Despite steady flows to Latin America and the East Coast, available tonnage continues to outpace demand. Owners are aggressively discounting to secure cargoes, and sentiment remains bearish heading into mid-November.

    Crude Tankers
    Crude freight continues to find support from structural inefficiencies. Tonnage remains tied up on longer routes as vessels avoid high-risk zones and opt for extended passages, helping maintain a floor under rates. Fixture activity is steady but not spectacular, and gains are capped unless demand improves.

    LNG Shipping
    The LNG freight market in the Atlantic Basin is tight. Vessel supply is constrained, voyage durations are extended, and winter demand continues to build. Spot rates are firm, with owners holding the advantage and charterers actively seeking forward cover.

    Overall Outlook
    Freight remains a split market: crude and LNG sectors benefit from tight supply and inefficient routing, while clean products face ongoing pressure from oversupply and soft demand. Without a notable rise in export volumes or fresh cargo programs, clean tanker rates are likely to stay under pressure through November.
