The loss of the shipping company intensified, and the freight rate of the European line fell sharply

Recently, the market rumored that the freight rate per 40-foot box on the European line has dropped from US $900 to US $750-850, which is lower than the cost price of US $1,000, and the return freight price has dropped from US $400-450 to US $20-100 per large box.

At the same time, the price of marine fuel is rising. It is reported that the third quarter of marine fuel until the 22nd quarter rose 21%, the fourth quarter of the four major international energy and financial institutions are expected to increase oil prices, the situation is not optimistic.

For large liner companies, the European line is the first trunk line to lose money. Industry insiders pointed out that the world's super-large container ships are deployed on the European line. These ships are very young, the construction cost is very high, and the fixed cost of idleness is high, so it is difficult for shipping companies to do a large amount of idleness. Therefore, unlike the American line, the number of idle ships is high, and the freight rate stability is much higher.

船司亏损加剧，欧线运价大跌

       近日，市场传闻欧线每40尺箱运价已从900美元跌至750-850美元，低于1000美元的成本价，回程货运价从每大箱400-450美元跌到20-100美元。

       与此同时，船用燃油价格却在上涨。据悉，第三季度船用燃油到22日为止涨了21%，第四季国际四大能源与金融机构都预计油价还会加高，形势不容乐观。

       对大型班轮公司来说，欧线是第一条亏损的干线。业内人士指出，全球超大型集装箱船都部署在欧线，这些船船龄很低，建造成本很高，闲置要支出的固定成本更高，船公司很难做较大量闲置，因此不像美线船只闲置比例高，运价稳定性也高许多。
