〔財經頻道/綜合報導〕近期全球油輪運費大幅回落,其中美國墨西哥灣至亞洲航線的超大型油輪(VLCC)租船成本,一個月內暴跌43.47%,引發市場關注。此外,西非至中國航線的VLCC每日等值租金收益,也較10月歷史高點下跌35%,但仍較三個月前大漲361%。《勞氏日報》(Lloyd’s List)指出,美國期中選舉後,原油油輪現貨運價、遠期運費協議、油價及油輪類股均大幅下跌。
《彭博》引述倫敦波羅的海交易所(Baltic Exchange)週一公布的數據指出,租用一艘可運送200萬桶原油的超級油輪,從美國墨西哥灣航行至亞洲,費用已從一個月前的7960萬美元(約新台幣26.1億元),降至約4500萬美元(約新台幣14.7億元)。儘管運費仍處於非常高的水準,但持續下跌可能使長距離原油貿易重新具有吸引力。
對此,《勞氏》分析指出,美國期中選舉後,市場表現彷彿預期民主黨取得國會控制權,將促使伊朗戰爭結束,並讓荷姆茲海峽恢復較安全的通航環境。不過,局勢也可能朝相反方向發展,包括美國與伊朗衝突再度升級,反而增加船舶通行風險。
《勞氏》指出,油輪市場的未來走向,取決於接下來的局勢發展,包括衝突升級、談判達成協議,以及持續僵局三種情境,可能分別導致不同的運價走勢。
值得注意的是,油輪運費下跌並非只發生在美國至亞洲航線。航運專業媒體Hellenic Shipping News於11月9日報導,過去一週油輪市場普遍走弱,不僅超大型油輪運費下降,蘇伊士型油輪(Suezmax)在西非及美國墨西哥灣等航線的運價也明顯回落,阿芙拉型油輪(Aframax)則在地中海及北海市場同步走弱。
船舶經紀商Affinity指出,VLCC運費整週持續下滑,主要受到租船詢價有限,以及價格更具競爭力的Suezmax油輪吸引部分貨源影響,壓抑船東的運價預期。其中,大西洋市場跌勢更加明顯,部分貨主轉向成本較低的Suezmax油輪,進一步削弱VLCC的市場需求。
在蘇伊士運河以東市場,儘管租船活動略有增加,短期可用船舶供給也仍然偏緊,卻不足以阻止運價下滑。另一方面,Suezmax市場因先前數週租船活動疲弱,加上可供租用的船舶增加,運價快速修正;地中海Aframax市場則因船舶供給增加,使租船方得以持續壓低價格。
整體而言,《彭博》與Hellenic Shipping News的報導均顯示,近期油輪運價修正已擴及不同船型與多個主要航運市場。不過,《勞氏》也提醒,儘管油輪運價自歷史高點回落,目前船東收益仍處於非常高的水準,而伊朗局勢的後續發展,仍是影響未來運價走勢的重要因素。
