Middle East Provided 90.9 % of Japan's Crude Imports in March
Japan imported 117.25 million barrels of crude oil in March 2011 according to the Natural Resources and Energy Agency.Oil shipments from the Arab countries and Iran accounted for 90.9 percent of total imports, the agency at the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry said. Saudi Arabia remained Japan's biggest oil supplier, exporting 37.24 million barrels, or 32.8 percent of Japan's total imports. The United Arab Emirates was second with 28.18 million barrels, or 24 percent, followed by Iran, which supplied 13.21 million barrels, or 11.2 percent. Analysts expect Japan to increase its dependence on Middle East oil in the near future as oil companies are boosting output of heavy oil for thermal power generation, industry officials and analysts told local media. Demand for heavy oil is growing due to Tokyo Electric Power Co.'s efforts to expand thermal power generation to cope with power shortages caused by the shutdown of its tsunami-crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant in northeastern Japan. The case looks similar to what happened in 2007, when heavy oil consumption grew after the company's Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power plant in Niigata Prefecture, central Japan, was shut down as a result of a powerful earthquake. The total amount of heavy oil procured by Japanese power companies in fiscal 2007 that ended in March 2008 jumped 55 pct from the previous year to 11.89 million kiloliters, according to the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy.

China aluminum plate exports up on fears of rebate cut
The aluminum plate exports from China are expected to remain robust in the Q2 as firms rush deals on fears that Beijing may cut or cancel export rebates that make the shipments attractive when paired with high LME prices. Industry sources said that exports of aluminum plates, sheets and strips made mainly from primary aluminum rose 73% rise in the Q1 of this year. Chinese plates are now offered at a discount of USD 40 per tonne to USD 60 per tonne to cash LME aluminum prices, free on board and at premiums of around USD 20 to buyers in Southeast Asia. Those prices are lower than a premium of around USD 100 per tonne over cash LME prices for spot good quality Western grade primary aluminum in Asia and about USD 113 for the benchmark quarterly premium in the April to June period set by Japanese buyers and Western producers. A trader at an aluminum smelter said that sellers are getting better prices from exports than for local sales. Export prices now are more than CNY 2,000 per tonne above the costs to plants which bought primary metal locally to make plates. Benchmark three month LME aluminum touched USD 2,803 per tonne its highest since August 2008. The price
stood at USD 2,792 at 0449 GMT. But prices in the world's largest aluminum producer and consumer, China, lagged the LME because it produces more than it needs. Chinese prices for spot aluminum have hovered below CNY 17,000 per tonne after hitting this year's high of CNY 16,870 in late February. Source: Reuters
Glencore goes in where others fear to tread
HIGH in the Andes lies one of Bolivia's most prized assets. The Vinto tin smelter churns out 80 per cent of the country's exports of the metal, used in everything from fizzy drink cans to high-end electronics.The price of tin has tripled in the past three years, so when Vinto put several million tonnes up for sale a few months ago, it had plenty of interest. One outdid them all. Sinchi Wayra is one of Bolivia's biggest miners. It paid more than double what Vinto expected and trounced other bidders, including Japanese car giant Toyota. Mining companies wouldn't normally take part in such an auction. Did Sinchi know something its rival bidders didn't? In a word -- yes. Sinchi is not simply a miner, but part of Glencore, the world's biggest commodities trader, which last week announced plans to float in London at a blockbusting pound stg. 37 billion ($57bn) valuation. The bet on tin was the type of trade only Sinchi's parent would, or could, make. Glencore is one of the biggest miners in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the war-torn country that produces copper, cobalt, gold and tin. Its traders, based in the Swiss town of Baar, spotted early that sales of tin and other metals from Congo had started to slip. Source: The Sunday Times
Atlas to raise Wodigna iron ore capacity
Atlas Iron Ltd has signed an agreement to expand capacity at its Wodgina iron ore mine in Western Australia's Pilbara by 75 per cent to 7 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa). That will take the company's total capacity to 9Mtpa as Atlas aims to grow total production to 12Mtpa by December 2012. Atlas said it had entered into a six-year infrastructure agreement with Global Advanced Metals (GAM), which owns infrastructure at the Wodgina tantalum mine site, giving the iron ore miner access to a range of infrastructure including the crushing and screening plant. The miner would pay $35 million towards the building of alternate screening and crushing capacity on the site by the end of the first quarter of 2012 for GAM's exclusive use, Perth-based Atlas said in a statement on Monday.

Capesize: The capesize market experienced another slow week. Continuation of holidays in Europe kept the cape activity in the Atlantic region in low levels, and while monsoon season in the Indian ocean is coming closer, iron ore majors remained inactive. Both factors resulted in cargo availability being unable to exceed tonnage supply. Fronthaul trade slightly improved, concluding to Usd 19.60pmt while in the Pacific the W.Austr/Qingdao levels dropped a bit from Usd 7.90pmt to Usd7.60 pmt, forcing owners to look for alternative trades ex S.Africa / W.Canada in order to secure employment for their vessels. The time charter average improved just a little bit from 6.700usd/day close to 6.800usd/day, but still current levels are below OPEX for most of the operators. Panamax: In both basins panamaxes had a positive week, gradually improving. In the Atlantic, fronthaul trips was the driving force and rates improved with vessels reported being fixed around Usd 26.000 + 600.000bb, while for t/a owners were talking around Usd 14.000 Vs lower the week before. Despite the holidays in F.east, the Pacific trade remained in a positive mood. S.E. Asia positions covered the Indonesian coal, while vessels opening in N.China – Japan range had a choice out of Nopac grains and Australia, with some fixtures being concluded at 13.000 Dop bassis N.china for Nopac r/v. Still, owner keep a low profile and remain skeptical as to how long this trend will last. Supramax: The Atlantic basin was quiet during the beginning of the week, while showed signs of improvement on mid-week. The scrap cargoes out of Continent were one solution, while some owners were struggling to find suitable cargoes for their vessels, leading them to start ballasting. Owners who considered F.East direction could see very high teens Dop Continent for trip via USG. For trips ex ECSA, handymaxes could conclude at high teens + 400k bb, while supramaxes could see low 20’s +400/450k bb, rates that previous week were not there. In the Pacific basin, market remained in the same levels, driven mostly from the Indonesia nickel ore and the coal ex Philippines. Vessels were fixed at mid teens for coal, while those willing to load nickel could see around 17.000, if not even more. For trips ex Nopac some fixtures concluded a Usd 12.500/day, while rumors say that a 55.000dwt vsl/05 built was on subs for 13.900. Iron ore ex India remains in the same levels with a slowing down trend, as monsoon period approaches. Handysize: Atlantic again remains firmer than the Pacific with sugars ex Ecsa to Conti/Med/Bl.Sea leading in front, and paying Usd 40/low 40’s pmt, with a Tce around 12.500Usd/day. In the Pacific region, modern vessels could get around Usd 11.500/day with the majority of cargoes destined to Bangladesh, and some smaller percentage going towards PG/WCI.

In Brief: As if market fundamentals hadn’t been making it difficult enough for owners to cover their vessels’ operating expenses,
the rising cost of bunkers over the past 5 months has come to complicate things further. Though it can be often used as a way to
increase rates, this may not always be the case and owners will have to struggle to keep levels stable. Some good news, however,
are coming from across the Atlantic. US gasoline stocks are 20 mill. bbls lower than last year and as result the TC2 market retains
levels last seen before the crisis.
VLCC: Rates in the Middle East Gulf remain pretty stable at last week’s levels with any positive feelings about the end of May
being dampened by the number of vessels available that are more than enough to cover the remaining cargoes. In West Africa,
owners took advantage of the strong levels in Suezmaxes and profited a little from the resulting differential.
Suezmax: Demand in West Africa improved with rates following but not spectacularly, mainly due to competition from VLCCs and
declining bunker prices. On the contrary, demand in the Black Sea for Mediterranean destinations was tempered during the week
and rates dropped 7.5 points.
Aframax: A surplus in supply lead rates in the Caribbean to drop by 5 points to WS 110, while the declining cost of bunkers could
push numbers even lower. Similarly, activity softened in the Middle East Gulf for Eastern destinations as well as rates in the North
Sea for U.K. Continent. Finally, the situation in the Mediterranean doesn’t look any better with an oversupply of vessels leaving
no room for optimism.
Products: Last week’s holidays leaved a mark on shipping activity with rates at best holding steady. Such an example would be
LR2 trading AG-Japan while on the contrary the TC5 market witnessed a considerable decline, which seems to be the case in the
Panamaxes in the Caribbean as well. The European market for transatlantic options suffers also from a surplus in supply which is
thought, however, to decrease slightly.

Firmer S&P Market
Following the Easter Holidays and with everyone returning back to their jobs, the BDI has been improved by 48 units,
Capes lost 6 points, Panamaxes gained 211, Handies lost 3 and Supramaxes gained 11.
In the Secondhand S&P market we can report quite some activity, with approximately twenty eight vessels reported to
have changed hands and tonnage ranging from handysizes up to capes. Two deals which attracted attention are the sale of
the capesize M/V “CAPE AGAMEMNON” (179.221 dwt, Built Sungdong KR 2010) which was reported sold for USD 98.5 mill
to Greek Buyers. This transaction included a TC attached for 9 years to COSCO Bulk at usd 50.455 / day net for the first five
years and 31.455 / day net for the remaining four. The second deal worth mentioning was the sale of the resale M/V
“Tsuneishi Fukuyama 1453” (82.600 dwt, Built Tsuneishi JPN 2011) which was reported sold to Greek buyers for USD 42.5
mill.
Regarding purchase enquiries, although we have not witnessed any severe increase the interest remained for Handies,
Handymaxes and Panamaxes in the dry sector, and in the wet sector MR’s and Aframaxes kept the interest firm.
NEWBUILDNGS
The newbuldings market has showed a tremendous increase with sixty eight vessels reported to have been contracted,
twenty five Bulk carriers’ with tonnage ranging from Handies up to large Capes, Four small Chemical tankers, Thirty eight
Container vessels ranging from 1.000 up to 14.000 TEU’s and six LNG Carriers of 160.000 cbm.
DEMOLITION
Despite previous expectations, the Bangladeshi market remained open as the court granted a two-month extension,
providing buyers with the requested time to seek and import units into their yards. India continues to gather demo
candidates for firm levels. Pakistani market is slowing down with regard to the number of vessels being negotiated but it is
attracting large tonnage with three VLCC tankers rumored to be negotiated. The Chinese market was expecting the market
of Bangladesh to have slowed down and buyers were getting ready to negotiate more vessels in order to beach new
candidates, but with the fresh news they will have to firm their prices in order to become more competitive.
