Charter market for H2
The second half of 2015 was disappointing for operators of reefer vessels large and small. After a long and difficult summer and autumn of weak demand and an oversupply of capacity, the market improved in October as the traditional banana surplus from Central America and Colombia absorbed what tonnage there was available. The market also benefited from a banana surplus in the Philippines — some 12 vessels were chartered for voyages into the Persian Gulf.
