WEAK TANKER MARKET OVERSHADOWING GOOD PERFORMANCE IN HEALTHY DRY CARGO MARKET

“Good performance in Dry Operator delivering another positive result cannot make up for the severe headwinds, we are facing in the tanker market. Dry Operator has responded well to changing trade flows following trade tensions between US and China and has during the third quarter protected value in positions that will benefit results in the fourth quarter. Dry Owner continues to benefit from an improving market and has increased cover. In tankers a gradual improvement in 2019 is expected as the market prepares for the IMO sulphur regulation. With a modern fleet, NORDEN is well prepared for this.”
