- China’s Unipec retains a firm grip in terms of global dirty spot chartering.
Poten’s annual top 20 chartering chart for 2021 looks very familiar to the 2020 version with similar overall cargo volumes and just one newcomer to the list, Hyundai from South Korea, says an article published in Splash 247.
Rankings
VLCC
In terms of VLCC fixtures, Unipec dominates. With almost 700 reported fixtures, compared to 97 for second-placed IOC and 70 for Shell in the third spot, Unipec remains in a league of its own.
Suezmax
The Suezmax sector showed significant movement in the relative rankings. Petrobras jumped from seventh in 2020 to first. Petrobras was not even in the top 10 in 2019.
Aframaxes
Regarding Aframaxes, Vitol remained number one spot, while Glencore dropped out of the top 10, making room for Aramco.
