At the International Containerization Conference held in Singapore recently, Thomas Preben Hansen, CEO of Rickmers Trust Management, said: “The super-large ship is ideal and capital-intensive. But you must have a strong opponent. Sign a long-term lease. It can generate stable income."
In 2007, the trust ordered three 13100TEU vessels, but the subsequent global financial crisis made it difficult to finance.
"From the perspective of cash income, shareholders demand value-added. When shareholders dismiss the ship 10 years later, only the total return is positive and not enough. There must be cash gains throughout the lease period," Hansen commented.
In the end, the Rickmers Group, which owns a 33% stake in Rickmers Maritime, intervened and accepted the ship. Hansen said that the company will develop its own container ship fleet in a collaborative manner to create fuel-efficient ships that meet market demand.
"We really have the power to develop the fleet. But we will use a collaborative approach to booking the ship to avoid overbooking. Although the current booking price is very attractive, we have to realize that supply and demand are very sensitive to overbooking."
