Forward guidance

The company expects continued strength in charter coverage and growing demand in Brazil and the North Sea, supported by new offshore oil production and limited vessel supply.

Tailwinds

  • 100% charter coverage secured for Q4 2025 after drydock adjustments.
  • Approximately 93% charter coverage already secured for 2026.
  • Brazil shuttle tanker market tightening due to outpacing production growth.
  • North Sea seeing improving demand with new fields entering production.
  • Anticipated vessel supply tightness through 2028 due to yard constraints.

Headwinds

  • Exposure to fluctuations in floating interest rates.
  • Limited ability to add vessels without sufficient long-term charter visibility.
  • Some vessels undergoing scheduled drydockings affecting utilization.
  • Continued inflationary pressures on operating expenses and drydocking costs.
  • Dependence on Petrobras and other key charterers for future utilization.
