Akurat nå går raten opp hovedsakelig pga nervøsitet hos befraktere og importører pga en mulig skvis. Dette går fort over.
Det er ca 550 LNG skip i verden. Med den spotslutningstakten vi har sett til nå i 2020, blir det ca 31 skip som vil få nyte godt av "oppblåste rater" world wide. Så vidt jeg kan se har Flex 4 skip som skal sluttes fra nå og ut Desember i kvartalet. Deler man disse gode ratene på hele flåten (10 skip) som ellers går på ganske billige rater blir ikke TCE noe å skrive hjem om. På den negative siden er innseilingen til Sabine Pass (USA's viktigste LNG eksporthavn) nå stengt for LNG skip pga en rigg som har gått på grunn der.

TW:

Fearnley LNG put its rate estimates for ME-GI and X-DF tonnage up to $105,000 per day in the Atlantic and $100,000 per day in the east, a weekly rise of $25,000. The unit of shipbroker Fearnleys base its report figures on concluded charters.
The LNG market was alive with chartering chatter Thursday.

Brokers spoke about vessels offers in $150,000 per day range being submitted for charter business floated by Indian Oil.
Chartering sources said levels for tri-fuel diesel-electric ships are now "definitely past $80,000 per day" mark with questions being asked about how high they might go.

Talk was also circulating of $80,000 per day being discussed on a steam turbine vessel. Fearnleys pegged steam ship daily rates at $60,000 across both basins.
Brokers said there are just one of two vessels currently open in the Atlantic with what one described as "a handful" in the east.
One said rates have surged $30,000 to $40,000 in a week.
LNG players TradeWinds spoke to were clearly busy and upbeat.
The market was described as "frisky" by one and "red hot" by another.

Most put the heightened action and rate uptick down to the improved LNG prices in the east which is pulling cargoes longer haul and soaking up tonnage.
The news that there will likely be no cargo cancellations from the US in December was also fuelling the positive mood. Cancellations started in May as the pandemic kicked in, climbing to 45 in both July and August before slowly tailing off.
Talk of an impending cold winter was adding to the sentiment.

But some players cautioned that the market could still prove volatile, particularly if traders optimise and sell into Europe or further Covid-19 demand shocks disrupt the demand picture.

One broker said that charterers with relet tonnage are trying to cash in on the roaring rates by offering their vessels out on multi-month deals. But with the 2021 picture unclear there are few takers at the high levels they are asking.
"Everyone is having a bit of a party at the moment," she said, "but how many ships get done is another matter."

The World’s Largest Oil Trader Just Sent LNG Prices Soaring

By Irina Slav - Oct 22, 2020, 9:00 AM CDT
Three trades for liquefied natural gas cargoes executed by commodity trading major Vitol made the company the talk of the LNG town as it pushed the Asian regional LNG benchmark up by as much as 20 percent.\




Bloomberg reports that the deals included one purchase of an LNG cargo from PetroChina, one from Gunvor, and one from Trafigura. The prices, at which Vitol bought the commodity between Friday and Tuesday, varied from $6.62 per mmBtu for the first cargo to $6.87 per mmBtu for the third one. Following these trades, the Japan-Korea Marker benchmark surged 20 percent to $6.761 per mmBtu—the year’s high.

LNG prices have received much-needed support recently, mainly from weather forecasts expecting a cold winter in the northern hemisphere and specifically in Asia. If the forecasts materialize, they will provide a vital boost to LNG trade as producers and exporters struggle with an oversupplied market that started well before the pandemic.

An excess in the supply of LNG globally had pushed benchmark prices for the commodity lower when the coronavirus emerged. Then they fell further, following the path of oil. LNG fell as low as $2 per mmBtu earlier this year, making a lot of production unprofitable. At the same time, demand slumped, too, leading to cargo cancellations, notably of U.S. shipments.

As summer ended and autumn began, LNG prices began to improve. Earlier this month, Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported the average price per million British thermal units of LNG for delivery to Northeastern Asia stood at $5.50, and cargoes for December delivery traded at a $0.20 premium to those for November delivery.

Analysts from Refinitiv expect that global LNG demand will jump by 4 billion cu m this winter, to be led, unsurprisingly, by a pickup in consumption in China, Japan, and South Asia.

Positivt for LNG ratene i Asia.
Are LNG Prices About To Head Higher?

Join Our Community

Weather forecasters are predicting a harsh winter for Asia, and while this would hardly be good news for anyone in the region, it happens to be great news for LNG exporters.

Producers of liquefied natural gas were hammered no less mercilessly by the coronavirus pandemic than their oil-producing peers. On top of that, the LNG market was already oversupplied—just like the oil market—when the coronavirus began its global march. As a result, prices for the so-called bridge fuel slumped to about $2 per million British thermal units, making a lot of LNG non-competitive and leading to delays in several final investment decisions in the United States.

While the FIDs are unlikely to be revisited anytime soon, spot prices are improving. The Nikkei Asian Review reported last week the price for LNG had hit $5.20 per mmBtu, which was nearly triply the price of the commodity this spring when the glut and the pandemic combined to drive it down. It is still short of the average of $6 per mmBtu, at which LNG traded a year ago, the daily noted.

This week, Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported that spot LNG cargos to be delivered to Northeastern Asia next month averaged $5.50 per mmBtu. This is the highest price for the commodity so far this year, supported by worries about supply disruptions along the U.S. Gulf Coast because of the heavy hurricane season. But the main factor is the weather. Forecasters in Japan have said there is an excellent chance of La Nina developing, which would bring colder temperatures, hence greater demand for heating. As a result, Russell notes, LNG cargos for December delivery in Northeastern Asia trade at a $0.20 premium to the cargos for November delivery.

LNG demand normally improves during the winter in the northern hemisphere, but mild winters have played a bad joke on producers before. For now, all looks set for a little bit of ordinary amid the whole pandemic havoc, with Japanese forecasters saying the likelihood of a La Nina was 90 percent.

“We expect LNG demand to increase by four billion cubic meters this winter and that’s led by growth in China, Japan and South Asia,” said analysts from Refinitiv, as quoted by Gasworld, earlier this month. “LNG supply is expected to grow by three billion cub meters, led by the US. And when we put together demand and supply forecast, we expect the LNG market to be slightly tighter than last winter by one billion cubic meters.”

This would be more much needed good news for LNG producers. In support of this demand and supply forecast, the latest import data from China is also positive, with LNG imports going up to 5.96 million tons in August, from 5.19 million tons a year ago, Argus Media reported in late September. Industrial activity in China is improving, and rising LNG imports are one of the indicators.

Imports are rising regionally, too, according to Refinitiv data cited by Reuters’ Russell in his commentary. The data showed that September deliveries of liquefied natural gas to the continent stood at 20.68 million tons. That’s up from 19.86 million tons in the previous month and 19.44 million tons a year earlier. China’s LNG intake fell in September, but Japan’s rose.

With the onset of the La Niña weather pattern and seasonal restocking of natural gas inventories in the northern hemisphere, natural gas prices have surged over the past two months at major import destinations. LNG prices in North East Asia are now at their highest since early 2019 at around $7.25/MMBtu, +250% since the mid-year lows. Comparatively, natural gas prices in the US are now around $3.0/MMBtu, +90% since the mid-year lows.



As a consequence of the significantly widening regional natural gas price differentials, US cargo cancellations have fallen from around 45 in both July and August to five in November and an expected zero in December, according to S&P Global Platts. The economics in transporting LNG from the US to the Far East and Europe have improved vastly over the past two months, and we see a strong correlation between the US/Japan price differential and LNG Carrier spot rates.



Although these developments are in-line with our expectations, both spot rates and natural gas prices at major importers have risen even faster than we had forecast. With MEGI/XDFs spot rates currently quoted at $113k/d (vs our $84k/d average forecast for 4Q20), TFDEs at $98k/d (vs our $75k/d forecast) and STs at $60k/d ($56k/d), our earnings estimates for 4Q20 are under review for upgrade. We are already 12% ahead of consensus on top-line for FLNG in 4Q20, 6% above on GLOG and 1% above on ALNG.

Ratene har tatt seg en pause så langt denne uken:

Fearnleys:
The LNG shipping market slowed to catch its breath at the start of this week after the frantic finish of last. Many Charterers gave pause for thought as we saw the enquiry escalate as last week moved on, and this week Owners with availability kept the pressure up knowing there is a genuine lack of available tonnage ahead to match the current requirement.

Owing to this, rates firmed into six figures in both basins. Tonnage Owners currently looking for employment continue to hold out in hope that the gains some have made are mirrored for the vessels they have opening.

However, some of these marketed cargoes cannot support such high freight levels and as such, several Charterers looked at FOB options to move their product. Those with shipping in place, and the ability to purchase FOB, will be seeing strong gains as delivered prices in North East Asia jumped as end-users seek coverage for an anticipated cold winter.

Despite the lack of activity early on this week, sentiment remains firm with Owners and backed with some robust fundamentals, especially within the Cargo market, this lull is likely to be short lived and activity is expected to ramp up again. In sale and purchase, no newbuilds have been reported this week and pressure on prices continue.
