WEBINAR – VACCINES GET FREIGHT MOVING AGAIN: THE OUTLOOK FOR OIL AND SHIPPING

VACCINES GET FREIGHT MOVING AGAIN: THE OUTLOOK FOR OIL AND SHIPPING

With coronavirus vaccines being applied around the globe, there is finally some scope for optimism in forecasts for shipping and oil markets in line with the wider economy as the year progresses. In the third in our series of Inatech & S&P Global Platts webinars on the coronavirus crisis, expert analysts and leaders from across the shipping, bunkering and oil industries assess:

  • Biden administration’s impact particularly on environment-related decisions
  • Short- and medium-term effects of $55/bbl oil
  • Covid-related restrictions on seafarers’ movement and vaccine transport impacts
  • Legacy of 2020 sulphur cap on fuel production, pricing and demand
  • Alternative fuel uncertainties and influence on newbuilding decisions

Covering container, dry bulk and tanker markets, we focus on:

  • Factors behind resilience in high-sulphur fuel demand
  • Rising freight rates, in both dry and wet trades
  • Container shortage ex-Asia and its effect on east- and westbound trades

When: February 11, 2021 @ 11:00am GMT.
