A VLCC fixture list

ALLABOUTSHIPPINGbuyer room · privateManage buyer room

A VLCC fixture list: a near-real-time record of actual tanker fixtures made by the world's largest independent VLCC pool — the co-operative's own commercial desk fixing its own ships. Each fixture carries vessel, laycan, fixing rate, route, bunker prices, demurrage, commissions and a full TCE breakdown, plus cargo forecasts. Because a tanker pool fixes a very large share of the global VLCC tonnage, these are not surveyed or modelled rates but actual concluded business with the economics decomposed. The app has been running publicly since 2014, so the archive is a long, granular record of what VLCC freight actually cleared at, at the moment it cleared — including the intraday sequence in which fixtures printed.
