    Old Hulls, New Money: Why the VLCC Market Has Stopped Counting Years (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    For most of shipping history, the valuation equation has been straightforward. A ship leaves the yard, begins ageing and progressively loses value. New steel commands the premium. Older steel trades at a discount. The VLCC market has just turned that logic on its head. Several very large crude carriers built before 2016 have recently been reported sold for $150 million or more, while the average price quoted for ordering a new VLCC has been around $135 million.

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

Each is real. None of them puts a nuclear-powered container ship anywhere near a port. The gap between those two facts is the whole story. An Approval in Principle, or AiP, is a cla
