Global fleets rise in value says Vessels Value


According to information provided by the research and data mining company Vessels Value (VV), the top ten global fleets have gone up in value by USD 17.6 billion.

 

While the Greek fleet increased its total value by over USD 5 billion in one year, the total asset value of the Greek-owned fleet has topped USD 100 billion mark, a significant milestone.

 

Japan, which remains in second place of the top owning countries, saw the largest addition of value from LPG carriers, a segment in which many other nations noted an erosion of value.

 

The Chinese fleet has seen the largest increase in value with an additional USD 6.3 billion, bringing up the total fleet value to just over USD 90 billion. At the same time, China suffered the largest drop in total container fleet value.

 

Singaporean owners have jumped up a spot into fourth place, increasing their fleet value by USD 3.1 billion. Norway maintains pole position as the number one home for offshore assets. Over USD 20 billion in assets puts it above US-based owners, who clock in at almost USD 17 billion.

 

Ranks 6 to 10 are occupied by the USA, Germany, the UK, South Korea and Denmark. (kd)
