Auflieger: Nach der Finanzmarkt- die Schifffahrtskrise!

[Holger]

Wo ich gerade was über die Schiffe der Reederei Jüngerhans lese - die trifft es momentan auch ziemlich hart.
Wie o.e. liegen Cepheus J und Andromeda J bereits seit November am Fruchtterminal BHV, dazu haben wir noch im Fischereihafen die Atair J...

Ansonsten haben wir noch die Marus ex Geest Atlas bei Bredo, Onego Tracer im Fischereihafen. El Bravo und Believer sind auch noch da, liegen aber wohl nur bis zu einer Woche auf, eben über die Feiertage.

Bin gestern nach langer Zeit wieder durch unsere Häfen gefahren. CEPHEUS J, ANDROMEDA J und auch ATAIR J habe ich nicht mehr gesehen. Die ONEGO TRACER liegt noch im Fischereihafen, aber unter neuem Namen.

Holger,

Cepheus J und Andromeda J liegen doch genau hinter der Drehbrücke am Fruchtterminal... Gerade noch vorbeigefahren... Atair J geht gerade raus..

Big boxships join anchored fleet

Janet Porter - Monday 29 December 2008
CONTAINERSHIP owners are now prepared to leave even their very large vessels idle as market conditions continue to worsen.

Latest figures from AXS-Alphaliner show that the number of boxships at anchor has increased significantly over the past couple of weeks, with total unemployed capacity now put at 165 vessels of 430,000 teu.

The figure only passed the 300,000 teu mark just two weeks earlier, but since then several more services have been suspended, with others due to be axed in the coming weeks.

AXS-Alphaliner reports that six very large containerships have joined the pool of out-of-work tonnage, while others of that size will soon be in a similar position as lines prepare to withdraw more services.
Another 19 ships in the 5,000 teu-7,500 teu range are also at anchor, along with 22 in the 3,000 teu-5,000 teu bracket.

But the biggest casualties of the slump are ships of 1,000-2,000 teu capacity, with almost five dozen now unemployed.

AXS-Alphaliner calculates the amount of idle tonnage at equivalent to 3.5% of the total cellular fleet, the same in percentage terms as that reached during the last downturn of 2002, when the fleet was much smaller.

Around 105 of the 165 ships at anchor are usually employed in the charter market.

German shipowners recently re-activated the Containership Association, whose members will be entitled to temporary loss-of-hire compensation for ships that are unable to find employment.

A number of owners are also planning to put their surplus boxships into full lay-up because of the absence of any positive signs on the horizon.

The downturn comes at a time when the fleet is growing at record speed, with total capacity passing the 13m teu level just before Christmas.

That represents growth of more than 100% since mid-2001 when the fleet stood at 6m teu.

It then took 21 months to climb by another 1m teu, whereas this year, the fleet gained 1m teu in the space of just nine months, and is on course to grow to 14m teu by August 2009.

Moin Florian,

hab ich doch glatt verwechselt. Habe den Liegeplatz am alten Fruchtterminal gemeint. Natürlich liegen die beiden noch da.



Ja ja, wenn man über 50 ist... Sorry nochmals.

UK’s River Fal runs out of space as lay-ups start to increase
Ships turned away as mooring demand soars

David Osler - Thursday 8 January 2009

THE River Fal, a traditional venue for ship lay-up in the UK, was yesterday forced to reject a block booking request for a fleet of seven vessels, simply because it is almost entirely out of capacity for the time being.

Regional harbourmaster Andy Brigden said the inquiry had been tabled through a local agent, who did not give full details of vessel type or ownership, but specified that the ships ranged from 160 m-218 m length overall.

However, he suspected that they were predominantly small bulk carriers.

But with eight ships and a barge already in mothballs in picturesque Cornwall, and more on the way, he reluctantly had to turn the business away.

“I have not got enough room for all seven, but I might be able to pick and choose one or two,” Mr Brigden said.

Anecdotal evidence suggests that Mr Brigden is not unique in his plight.

Lay up is going global. Some 15 cruiseships and cargoships are said to be laid up in Subic Bay in the Philippines, a former US naval base, with the government inviting other shipowners to consider the location.

According to reports from Canada, many lakers, which typically lay up for winter anyway, are doing so several weeks earlier than usual, directly as a result of the economic downturn.

Mr Brigden has heard rumours that the Norwegian Fjords are also out for a slice of lay-up business.

Yet even the experts are not able to come up with a total for the overall number of the world fleet currently out of work. Conservative estimates speak of anywhere between 30 and 80 laid-up vessels in the capesize bracket alone, to take only the largest type of bulk carrier.

Earlier this week, broker AXS-Alphaliner said that around 210 boxships aggregating over half a million teu were idle; that compared with estimates of just 80 at the end of September last year. Elsewhere in Asia, there are claimed to be up to a dozen containerships idle in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Singapore.

Mr Brigden told Lloyd’s List that two handysize bulk carriers, both previously operated by Britannia Bulk, were tied up in the river earlier this week.

In addition, the Fal is providing a temporary home to two car carriers, three reefers, a buoy tender and a barge.

“We can probably fit in a couple more. We’ve got room for a car carrier to go alongside another car carrier. Once she’s in, I can probably put another reefer or something alongside that one,” he said.

“Then we are full up as regards moorings. I have just had another inquiry for seven vessels, but we turned it down. I need to start speaking to colleagues to see if there is any merit in laying more moorings or looking at things a different way.

“Is it worth considering bringing ships up where there are no dedicated buoys but actually topping and tailing them, joining two ships together, and so on? We might have a look at it. We have got to look at the risk and return, and what work is involved in doing it,” he said.

Much will depend on timing, as some of the tonnage is under arrest and might be released at any time, thereby releasing capacity.

In a sense, the River Fal is getting back to its roots; it has been favoured as an inexpensive location for lay-ups for over a century, and last saw sustained demand in the 1999-2000 period, when 13 vessels were laid up.

Although hard statistics for the worldwide lay-up tally are unavailable, industry observers seem confident that it is becoming increasing commonplace.

Imarex Asia’s Jeffrey Landsberg yesterday suggested from Singapore: “If you are talking capesize, I would say 30 to 80 [ships]. I know a lot of people reckon it might be 100 to 200, but I have it under 100. I’m a bit more bullish then most. But that said, it is a lot of vessels.”
