Invest IN the world’s leading multipurpose shipping company.
90% of the goods traded worldwide (and 40% within Europe) are transported by sea. Yet only about 3 % of all global CO2-Emissions come from shipping. Since 2008 goods transported by sea increased over 35 % while CO2-Emissions could get reduced by 18 % – a development that is foreseen for the years to come.
Briese Schiffahrt, together with its investors, owns the world’s largest multipurpose vessel fleet, totaling over 130 vessels. As the industry leader, Briese Schiffahrt not only operates young, modern multipurpose vessels, but also leads innovation in new shipbuilding.
Briese Schiffahrt has ignited the “shipbuilding” cycle by ordering 15 vessels of the eco-efficient and load-maximized “LakerMax” series with schematics designed by Briese Schiffahrt.
Growing expansion in the energy sector will remain the driving force behind the demand for multipurpose vessels. It will keep the fleet busy for the years to come.
Good reasons to invest.
Overaged Multipurpose Vessel Fleet
In the early 2000s the production cycle of new multipurpose vessels started with finding its peak in 2011. The overcapacity of vessels led to plummeting charter rates and almost a halt of newbuilding activity over the past decade. The result is an overaged multipurpose fleet with an average age of 21 years.
Knowing that the typical life span of a vessel is 25 years many vessels, and as a consequence loading capacity, will exit the global fleet over the coming years. Therefore, a new production cycle of new eco-efficient and load-maximized multipurpose vessels is imminent with Briese Schiffahrt igniting the trend.
