Glencore's ST Shipping Charters VLCC for Gasoil Transport from South Korea
In an unusual development in the maritime transport sector, Glencore's shipping division, ST Shipping, has taken the significant step of chartering a newly constructed very large crude carrier (VLCC) for the transportation of gasoil. This operation, which is set to potentially send the fuel from South Korea to Africa, was reported by shipbrokers and traders on Wednesday. Typically, gasoil is transported using medium to long-range vessels, generally designed to carry up to 700,000 barrels. However, ST Shipping's decision to utilize a VLCC, which has a substantial capacity of approximately 2.2 million barrels, marks a departure from standard practices. According to shipping data from Thomson Reuters Eikon, the newly chartered Gener8 Oceanus, a VLCC with a deadweight tonnage of 299,011 DWT, is currently navigating off the southeastern coast of Taiwan and is bound for Singapore to load gasoil. This strategic move by Glencore reflects a notable trend in shipping logistics and capacity utilization.
