Marcon International, Inc.
Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
The majority of tugs Marcon tracks for sale as of the time this report is
being written are in the U.S. with 116 tugs officially on the market (from 117
last report), followed by 113 in Southeast Asia (122), 89 in the Far East
(77), Europe with 73 (vs. 79), 61 in the Mediterranean (59), 52 in the MidEast (44), 23 in the South Pacific (24), 21 each Caribbean (28) and Latin
America (18), 17 in Africa (16), 16 where location unstated (20), 15 in
Canada (15) and 5 in Southwest Asia (4). CAT diesels still power most
tugs for sale with machinery in 126 or 21% of the tugs Marcon lists. This is
followed by 82 Cummins, 61 Yanmar, 54 Niigata, 49 EMD, 27 Mitsubishi,
22 Deutz-MWM, 20 GM/DD and 14 Wartsila powered tugs. 154 tugs are
powered by machinery from other manufacturers from ABC to Zibo with, as
always, six Fairbanks Morse boats still on the market. In the tugs listed for
sale since February 2010, CAT powered vessels are up 1 percentage
point, Cummins 4 percentage points (with most of the gain from Southeast
Asian and Chinese built vessels constructed in the past five years), EMD
no change, Yanmar up 4 points and Niigata up 1 point.
There is has been a definite shift in the second-hand tug market over
the last few years with newer boats, many of which are ASDs out of
Southeast Asia and the Far East, being offered for sale. Five years
ago, only 24.6% of the tugs worldwide, primarily foreign flag, were built
within the previous ten years compared to 30.87% today. The United
States also then had the largest selection of tugs listed for sale with
132 available (23.5%) tracked by Marcon (plus 7 additional U.S. flag
tugs overseas). 113 tugs were located in Europe (20.1%), 86 in
Southeast Asia (15.3%), Far East 82 (14.6%), Mediterranean 34
(6.0%), Mid-East 30 (5.3%) and Caribbean (3.4%). There has definitely
been a shift in the marketplace with the Southeast Asian second-hand
tug market overtaking Europe and soon to overtake the U.S. in the
number of tugs for sale in the region. As far as types go - conventional
single and twin screw tugs still prevail today with 131 (21.1%) and 344 (55.3%), respectively, for sale worldwide. These
are followed by 128 azimuthing tugs (20.6%) on the market, 16 Voith Schneider tractor tugs (2.6%) and three triple
screw (0.5%). As a comparison and demonstrating the trend in propulsion, five years ago 30.1% of the 562 tugs for
sale were single screw, 49.3% twin screw, 17.0% azimuthing and 3.4% were Voith Schneider. This shift is expected to
continue as many older single screw boats linger on the market and eventually are broken-up. By the time of our next
report I expect to see more ASD tugs listed for sale worldwide than single screw – even though I have to admit that a
few of my favorite tugs followed over the last 30+ years were single screw.
The greatest global changes in horsepower for sale in the last five years have been in the 2,000 – 2,999HP range with
42 tugs more available today with an average age of 25 years compared to February 2010 when the average age of the
121 vessels listed was 31 years. There are also 19 more 4,000 – 4,999HP tugs today (17 years / avg. build date 1998).
Average age in 2010 in this horsepower range was 18 years.
Actual sale prices of all vessels and barges sold by Marcon todate has averaged 91.01% of asking prices. Admittedly
though this is probably a combination of more realistic asking
prices and a couple of “good” sales than any major reflection
of the market. I expect this average to decline slightly over the
year more in line with last year as there still have not been any
strong trends or direction to point to in the tug S&P market –
or significant changes in pricing. In 2014 actual sales prices
averaged 85.65% of asking prices, compared to 2013’s
87.07%, 2012’s 81.79% and 2011’s average 93.03%. Seven
tugs were sold in 2014 with an average price per BHP of
$282.55 and average age of 41 years. This is lower than
2013’s average price per BHP for a “generic” 33 year old twin screw tug of US$ 324.78. 2014 sales included both
foreign and domestic tugs and actual ages covered a relatively narrow range from 32 to 47 years of age.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Recent Marcon Tug Sales & Charters
The first two months of 2015 saw the conclusion of six sales and one charter, including one pushboat, after the sale of
th
two tugs on December 30 , 2014, bringing 2014 to nine tugs totaling 29,734BHP sold or chartered.
Riverview Equipment, LLC of Petaluma, California sold its inland pusher tug
"Cassie Lind" to private interests for re-powering and refurbishment to be further
employed in the new Owner’s inland service. The ex-"Anna Foss", ex-"American
River" was originally built by Colberg Boat Works of Stockton, California in 1961
and measures 65’ length overall x 26’ beam x 8’ depth of hull. The vessel is a
combination pusher / towing vessel which is designed with a model bow, flat
bottom, and straight sides. She was designed for towing and pushing with push
knees forward and a three level deck house which allows for a good height of eye
in the pushing mode. She is also fitted with a Nautican fixed kort nozzle system,
installed by a former Owner in 2012, with 64” x 62” wheels, and triple rudders for
excellent focus of thrust, and good maneuverability in tight quarters. Previously powered with twin CAT main engines
totaling 1,700BHP, she was sold as a straight hull without any machinery, and towed to her new home by her new
Owner for refitting / refurbishment. Marcon acted as sole broker in the sale and has handled a number of sales and
purchases for both Buyer and Seller in the past.
Marcon International is pleased to announce the long term bareboat charter
of the AHTS “Bremen Hunter” (ex-Normand Hunter, A.H. Camogli, Edda Star)
from her German owner/operators to Latin American charterers. Built in 1982
at Tonderverftet; Hommelvik in Norway and rebuilt in 2008, the vessel
measures 216’ x 44’ x 22’ depth. Powered by twin MAK 12M453AK main
engines, it produces close to 10,000BHP and 110mt of Bollard Pull. Vessel is
fitted with 300 ton double drum anchor handling / tow winch. "Bremen Hunter"
is classed with Germanischer Lloyd with a +100A5 E notation and flies the
Antigua and Barbuda flag; which it will continue to fly under the charter.
Marcon was the sole broker in this transaction.
th
On December 30 , Crowley Marine Services, Inc. sold their two 3,500BHP
twin screw, low profile harbor docking and coastwise tugs “Spartan” and
“Saturn” to private U.S. West Coast buyers. Both Red Stack tugs were
originally built in 1969 for Crowley by Mangone Shipbuilding of Houston,
Texas – a subsidiary of Stewart & Stevenson. Both came around from the
Gulf to the West Coast with tows, the “Saturn” with a tandem tow of two
new 150-series lightering barges before being assigned towing of large oil
barges, and the “Spartan” with a new 250series cargo barge before being outfitted for
service in the Arctic hauling oil field supplies
and fuel around Point Barrow, Alaska and later wintering over at Prudhoe Bay. “Spartan”
and “Saturn” were built as slightly larger and higher horsepower versions of the “Apollo”,
“Jupiter” and “Hercules” built by Mangone two years earlier which also featured a low profile
house and large aft deck. The 91.0’ x 29.0’ x 13.3’ depth tugs are each powered by a pair
of CAT 3516s totaling 3,500BHP at 1,800RPM with Lufkin 7:1 gears and fixed pitch, 5blade stainless steel open props developing a
bollard pull of abt. 54,800lbs. ahead and
40,900lbs. astern. Both boats were repowered
from CAT D399s in 1994. Towing gear consists of a Skagit RB-90 double
drum waterfall winch with a capacity for 1,600’ of 1.75” wire on each drum
plus a 600’ 9” circ. emergency tow line. “Spartan” and “Saturn” were working
in San Diego, California at the time of the sale and are being replaced by
more modern tugs. Marcon International, Inc. acted as sole broker in the
sale and has handled a number of sales and purchases for the buyer and
over a hundred sales and purchases for the seller.

Marcon International, Inc.
Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
A modern 2009 built, 4,584BHP ASD tug was fixed on a long-term bareboat
charter on a private and confidential basis. The 94' x 34' x 15' tug was built in
2009 and classed LR +100A1 Tug +LMC, +UMS. Powered by twin CAT 3516CHDs driving Rolls Royce azimuthing props, tug is capable of developing 60
metric tons bollard pull and a free running speed of abt. 13.8 knots. Tug will be
employed docking ships in Latin America. Marcon acted as sole broker in this
and several previous charters between the parties involved. Marcon currently
has three other ASD tugs in the 65 to 75 ton bollard pull range fixed on longterm charters in Latin America.
A 2,250BHP, conventional twin screw, 1982 built tug was sold between private
South American parties. The formerly Lloyd’s Register-classed coastal/harbor tug
measures 80’ x 26’ x 14’ depth / 9.85’ draft and is powered by twin CAT D399 main
engines and fixed pitch props. The tug has been reflagged to Panamanian registry,
renamed and is about to set sail for its new home port. Marcon was the sole broker
in the transaction. This was the second time Marcon has acted on behalf of the
Buyers and the second or third time Marcon represented Sellers in a transaction.
Marcon International is pleased to announce the successful sale of the
3,900BHP, U.S. flag tug “Maria Brusco” (ex-Ocean Service) from a U.S. Owner
to private overseas Buyers for transfer to registry under foreign flag. The 127’ x
32’ x 14’ depth tug was originally built in 1967 at Burton Shipyard Inc. in Port
Arthur, Texas as Hull 404 for International Bulk Transport of Wilmington,
Delaware and operated for Sonat Marine towing petroleum barges coastwise.
Tug underwent major reconstruction in 1987 under previous ownership. Her twin
EMD16-645E2’s develop a total of 3,900BHP at 900RPM through Falk LST
20000 2.48:1 reduction gears to 80” x 67” fixed pitch, stainless steel propellers
in kort nozzles. The ABS Loadlined tug has a fuel capacity of 92,000 gallons,
which gives her a good range for Caribbean, Atlantic and other long haul tows. The
Smatco 62DADT-200, 250,000lb. line pull single drum winch has a capacity for
2,600’ x 2.25” towing wire plus 690’ of 2.25” wire on a pendant drum. “Maria Brusco”
had been working in the U.S. Gulf, and Caribbean for the past few years, but spent
much of her life towing plus performing a number of rescues in heavy weather on
the Pacific Coasts of the United States, Hawaii and Canada for both Brusco and
Sause Bros. Ocean Towing. The tug’s next venture, under her new ownership, will
reportedly be in support of foreign oil and gas market in South America. Marcon
represented the Sellers in this transaction
2015 also started out as a good year for barge sales, which will give the tugs something to tow.
Moran Towing Corporation of New Canaan, Connecticut sold their
U.S. flag, ocean deck barge “Norfolk” (ex-Columbia Norfolk, Ponce
Trader, UMTB 331, MLC-331) to private buyers on the U.S. East
Coast who specialize in the transport of aggregates. The 331.3’ x
78.0’ x 20.3’ depth, double raked barge was built in 1982 by Marine
Power and Equipment of Seattle,
Washington for their affiliated
companies Marine Leasing
Company and Marine Logistics
Corporation to operate in the
Puget Sound / Alaskan trade. The
ABS +A1 classed barge is fitted with 14.5ft. bin walls giving it a cubic capacity of
abt. 288,601ft3 and a deadweight capacity of 8,688 long tons on a 15.8’ draft. This
is the second sale Marcon has brokered for Moran Towing Corporation within the
last six months and the first transaction with this buyer.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Private U.S. West Coast buyers have purchased the former “Google”
barge “JMC 262” (ex-BAL0001, CIB 721) from Cashman Equipment Corp.
The 260’ x 72’ x 16’ ocean deck barge was built in 2010 by C & C Marine &
Repair of Belle Chasse, Louisiana and best known as one of the four
proposed four-story “mystery” barges owned by By and Large LLC, a
company affiliated with Google. The barges were reportedly being outfitted
as floating “studios” and “temporary technology exhibit spaces” providing
an interactive experience where people could learn about the tech
company’s newest technology and products. After various questions arose
regarding building permits
and U.S. Coast Guard
safety concerns, the project
was put on hold and conversion halted. The double-raked, ABS +A1
Ocean Deck barge can carry abt. 5,107 long tons on a 12.58’ draft and
has a 9/16” plate deck with a uniform deck load of 5,000PSF. The ½”
plate hull is divided by six transverse watertight, two longitudinal
watertight and one centerline mid-body non-watertight bulkheads
forming 15 epoxy coated watertight compartments. Marcon International
acted as sole broker in the sale.
Harbor Enterprises, Inc. of Seward, Alaska sold their ABS +A1 Ocean
combo deck/tank barge “PM 230” (ex-NPI-230, FNT 230, Alaska Spirit) to
private U.S. Northwest Buyers for conversion to ABS +A1 Ocean deck
service. Built in 1983 as the “Alaska Spirit” (Hull 635), the barge is one of
several units produced in the early 1980s by Zidell Marine Group of
Portland, Oregon that served as a combination barge for carrying deck
cargo and petroleum cargo in commercial trade. The units all measured
230’ x 60’ x 15.5’ depth, and have fast towing spoon bows, and twin
towing skegs aft. All of this class have since been retired from petroleum
service, and were sold into dedicated ABS Ocean deck service. This
combination carriage was effectively legislated out of existence with the
OPA ’90 laws, and Owners were forced to dedicate the tonnage to either liquid service or deck. This barge entered
dedicated petroleum service in 1988 and served in the Alaska trade up until
her mandatory retirement date December 31, 2014. Her internals being
effectively “pickled” with the carriage of petroleum since 1988 – the steel
condition was well maintained over the years while trading as a tank barge.
The barge was delivered to her new Owner at a Pacific Northwest shipyard
the very first week of 2015. All of the pumps and petroleum service
equipment will be removed, and the “PM 230” will be fitted with a 250 ton
crawler crane and converted to dedicated deck and in crane service working
in Alaska. Her deadweight as a deck barge will be about 3,300T. The barge
previously carried about 25,000 BBL of petroleum product in below deck,
integral tanks as well as some clean fuel product in on-deck tanks. Marcon
acted as sole and exclusive broker for the sale of this barge.
Two 230’ – 285’ barges, four 4,600 – 5,900BHP tugs and one
5,150BHP modern, 2011 built AHTS continue on long term charters.
Marcon International, Inc. has brokered 1,369 vessels and barges for
sale or charter over the past 34 years including 306 tugs totaling
953,439BHP, 76 AHTSs total 364,668HP and 35 inland pushboats
(79,460BHP) in addition to many other vessel and barge types.
Several additional sales, charters and long-distance tows are pending
and expected to close during the second quarter of this year including hopefully sales of two or three additional tugs.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Once Again – Yet Another Record Number of Tugs Worldwide
The worldwide number of tugs continues to climb with increases of 5.4% from one year ago and 21.9% five years ago.
While information in IHS Fairplay Sea-web only covers “sea-going” vessels over 100GRT, there are many tugs either
under that tonnage or in inland service. According to Sea-web, as of February 19, 2015, there were 17,179 “sea-going”
tugs over 100GRT worldwide, up from 16,299 in February 2014, and up 308 vessels from November 2014. Total
horsepower is 45,510,202BHP, up 721,139BHP since November. Even taking into account flags of convenience, the
largest national fleet of tugs over 100GRT sails under Indonesian flag with 4,040 tugs totaling 6,609,422BHP. The
U.S., as the second largest national fleet of tugs, operates 1,468 “sea-going” tugs over 100GRT, or 8.55% of the world
market, totaling 4,940,248BHP (10.86% global BHP). Average age of tugs worldwide is 23 years with the U.S. flag
“sea-going” fleet now at 36 years (built 1979).

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
At the time of our August 2014 report, the average horsepower for the world’s
16,626 “sea-going” tugs was 2,648BHP with an average year built of 1992.
Today’s 17,179 tugs have an average horsepower of 2,649BHP with a year built
of 1992 – a slight improvement. The U.S. fleet in August 2014 included 1,457
“sea-going” tugs with an average horsepower of 3,360BHP and a year built of
1979. Today’s U.S. fleet has slightly increased to 1,468 tugs with an average
horsepower of 3,365BHP and a year built of 1979 which also shows a gradual
replacement of the older, lower horsepower tugs - most notably with higher
horsepower and more efficient twin screw AT/B tugs and azimuthing
shipdocking and escort tugs.
Breakdown of U.S. “Sea-Going” Fleet
Following is a breakdown of the U.S. sea-going tug fleet as of
February 2015, according to IHS Fairplay Sea-web, compared with
our last report in August 2014. As of February 2015, the U.S.
domestic tug fleet consisted of 1,468 “sea-going” tugs totaling
4,940,248BHP. The U.S. flag fleet increased by four and total
horsepower by 33,264BHP. High horsepower and large tugs are
easy to track, but Sea-web has data on only 51 U.S. tugs under
999BHP. As most “under 1,000HP” U.S. tugs are below 100 GRT,
they are not included in the Registry. Not counting pushboats, there
are eight to nine hundred additional small tugs in U.S. coastal waters.

Of the 1,468 U.S. tugs in Sea-web’s, 191 have unknown engines. 493, or 39%
where type is known, are powered by EMDs; 400 (31%) by CATs; 108 (8%) by
General Motors / Detroit Diesels, Alco and Cummins have 4%, Fairbanks Morse
and M.T.U. are tied with 3% each and Wartsila has 2% of the market share. 377
(26%) and 792 (54%) are conventional single and twin screw, respectively. The
remaining 20% are 239 azimuthing, 37 triple screw and 23 Voith tractor tugs. Two
years ago, of 1,450 U.S. flag tugs, 466 or 37% were powered by EMDs, 383
(31%) by CATs and 126 (10%) by General Motors / DD, which is fairly consistent
with what we see today. In regards to propeller types, today there are 16 fewer
single screw, 19 more twin screw and 15 more azimuthing tugs versus the fleet
statistics in February 2013. Regardless of the current low price of fuel, that cost is
still a big concern to tug operators future newbuildings, plus repowering of older
vessels will take into account both fuel economy and emissions.

vessels, up 13 from 548 in August. This is, of course, down from a peak of
768 in October 2008, but still healthy. 775 of today’s newbuildings, down 17
from our last report, are
OSVs and 339, down six,
are “Offshore – Other”. Of
561 tugs listed by Fairplay
under construction, China
PR leads the order book
with 133 tugs being built, up 17 from August. They are followed by
Malaysia at 99 (down 16) tugs, Turkey 46, Vietnam 38, 26 Romania, 23

Contracts tallied 722 vessels and barges on order,
excluding inland barges and recreational vessels.
About 495 or 68.6% are being built for governmental
agencies, such as the U.S. and other various Navies,
U.S. Coast Guard, Army Corps of Engineers and police
departments. These range from 28’ transportable port
security boats for the U.S. Coast Guard (actual order is
for up to 99 vessels) to two 85,000ldt aircraft carriers.
About 227 of the vessels and barges on order are for traditional commercial operators. These include approx. 26 tugs
and 23 inland river pushboats at latest count.
CAT power still leads in popularity for propulsion in newbuilding seagoing tugs with main engines in 152 tugs. This is followed by Yanmar
in 64 boats, Niigata diesels in 43, 36 Mitsubishi, Cummins in 31, 24

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
The big flurry of activity in the U.S. is in the building and stretching of
OSVs vs. new tugs. Although today’s tug orderbook is down slightly
over the figures in past market reports, additional tugs are soon to be
added. As of 20th January 2015, MarineLog reported 26 tugs on the
order books in the U.S., same as our August 2014 report. At this
February, Lloyd’s reports 15 “sea-going” U.S. flag tugs on the books.
In comparison, there are 46 OSVs on order at U.S. shipyards, down
37 from our last report and 67 less than the same time last year.
Seventeen 312’ PSVs for Edison Chouest are on order from North
American – plus there are options for another 20 more of the same. I
can only hope that with the falling crude oil prices that the market
somehow manages to support the newbuildings coming on-line.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
th
On Friday 24 October, the 23.8m 11.0m x 4.57 m depth / 4.9m max draft ASD
tug “SST Chile” (Hull 608) was launched by INACE – Industria Naval do Ceara
S.A. in Fortaleza, Brasil for SAAM Smit Towage Brasil / Tugbrasil Apoio
Portuario SA. Tug was designed by Robert Allan Ltd. and is classed by ABS.
The 4,200BHP tug is powered by a pair of 1,825kW CAT 3516C-HD diesels. The
sister-tug “Ilhabela” (Inace 609) keel was laid shortly thereafter.
Capilano Maritime Design Ltd. is currently overseeing the construction of the 13.5m purpose
built tug designed for Manitoba Hydro in Canada. CMDL previously completed a detailed design
package and specification and supported Manitoba Hydro in the selection of the shipyard. The
tug is currently under construction at Ocean Industries in Quebec City. The tug will be
constructed and outfitted at Ocean's facilities then broken into four modules and shipped by
truck to northern Manitoba. CMDL will oversee the final assembly and trials in northern Manitoba
prior to delivery to Manitoba Hydro.
Nakilat Damen Shipyards Qatar has delivered two new Qataribuilt mooring tugs to towage operator Nakilat SvitzerWijsmuller
(NSW). The delivery of the two ASD 2810 tugs is part of a sevenvessel order that the yard is currently working on for NSW. The first
of the new tugs, “Umm Al Shubrum”, completed sea trials in Ras
Laffan in mid-January 2015. She was followed in February by the
second vessel, “Al Kharsaah”. Both vessels performed
exceptionally well during the trials. Both vessels will operate as part
of Nakilat NSW’s growing fleet. NSW currently operates over 30
vessels and performs 12,500 tug jobs per year. These vessels will
join NSW’s existing vessels in the Port of Ras Laffan. They will be put to use assisting ships entering and departing the
port. The Damen ASD 2810, 28m long with a beam of 10m, has a bollard pull of 45 tons and can travel at a speed of
12.6 knots. Niels Tinsfeldt, Managing Director of NSW, said: “The Nakilat Damen Shipyards’ mooring tugs introduced
to NSW represent a very agile and strong supplement to the tug fleet at the LNG Port in Ras Laffan.” The first two Stan
Tug 1606 mooring boats, “Ras Al Allaj Qatar” and “Al Esaiwed”, were delivered in August 2014……. Multraship, the
Netherlands-based towage and salvage specialist, recently took
delivery of a Damen ASD 2810 Hybrid tug Hull 1241 built at
Damen Shipyards Galaţi, in Romania. The delivery is part of
Multraship’s current fleet expansion program, which involves a
number of Damen vessel orders. The ASD 2810 Hybrid adds to an
already extensive fleet of tugs operated by Multraship. Multraship
has its headquarters in the harbor city of Terneuzen and operates
in the ports around the Scheldt estuary at Zeeland Seaports and
the Ports and Ghent and Antwerp, as well as the Bulgarian Port of
Burgas on the Black Sea. Damen’s new ASD 2810 Hybrid is a new
design and this is the second of its class to be built. It is a timely concept, offering a much sought after fuel and
emission efficient performance. Dinu Berariu, Project Manager at Damen Shipyards Galaţi, said of the new vessel,
“This hybrid tug is a very unique concept. It features a diesel-direct, diesel-electric and battery powered propulsion
system. This hybrid configuration will enable Multraship to lower fuel costs by up to 30% and emissions by up to 60%.”
After on-time and on-budget completion, the 28.7m x 10.4m x 4.6m
vessel, named “Multratug 28”, sailed under her own keel to the
Netherlands from Galaţi. Multraship’s fleet expansion program
stems from its increasing customer base in the offshore sectors as
well as growing demand for harbor towage services. The ASD 2810
Hybrid, powered by a pair of 1,840kW MTU 16V4000M63R diesels
developing a total of 5,000BHP and an expected bollard pull of 61
tons, is a perfect fit for both these areas of operation. Additionally,
the company has ordered two Damen ASD 3212 vessels, which are
currently being built at Damen Song Cam Shipyard in Vietnam and
will be delivered before the end of the second quarter of this year.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Damen Shipyards Group has also delivered the first vessel in its new
ASD Tug 2913 class. The 2913 has been developed in response to
demand from operators for more powerful tugs capable of handling
today’s ever larger vessels. As well as having a bollard pull of 80 tons
and total power of 5,050bkW, the new CAT 3516C-HD powered tug is
just 29m in length and highly maneuverable, making it ideal for
operations in busy harbors where space is limited. The ASD 2913 has
accommodation for 10 personnel across six cabins and with a beam of
13m is very stable. It also has push/pull capabilities and can be fitted
with an aft winch as an option. It is also the first Damen tug to be built with a double hull so as to comply with the latest
safety regulations. The launch customer for the new model is German towage specialist Petersen & Alpers, founded
in 1801, and she will join an existing Damen ASD Tug 2411, which the company has been operating for the last four
years out of Hamburg. Named the “Michel”, the ASD 2913 will also be working in and around Hamburg, which is made
up of a series of small basins and narrow waterways. In such an environment and with modern trends towards larger
vessels for greater efficiency, maneuverable, compact tugs with more power are needed today more than ever before.
However the 2913 also has very good sea-keeping qualities, allowing her to undertake offshore operations when
required. “We are very happy to be working once again with Damen,” said Peter Lindenau, Managing Director of
Petersen & Alpers. “We had built up trust on our last project, and the whole package worked well for us. It is not just
price but also performance, service and maintenance.” The contract was signed in February 2013 and, as the launch
customer with over 200 years’ experience in shipping, Petersen & Alpers contributed a good deal of valuable input into
the design by, for example specifying details such as an oil fired heating system.
Over the next two years a great deal of effort went into designing, engineering and
building a tug that would deliver to its owner’s expectations and beyond. Before
the first of the ASD Tug 2913 (Hull 513101) was even launched, Damen had
received strong interest in the vessel and its capabilities, and work is already
underway building more for delivery at short notice. Two sister-tugs, Hulls 513102
and 513103 are under construction for delivery early 2016. This latest and more
powerful “Michel” replaces the 30.0m x 11.0m, 4,000BHP “Michel” built in 1998 by
Astilleros Zamakona SA and now owned / operated by Towmar Baltic UAB as the
“Tak-7”…… Damen has begun work on the latest and one of the largest model yet
in its popular, shallow draft Shoalbuster range. Ordered by Van Wijngaarden
Marine Services, the Shoalbuster 3512 is 35m in length, has a draft of 2.9m and GRT of 498 tons. The completely new
design brings a range of benefits including a larger bridge, an extensive working deck of 134m2 and accommodation
for up to 11 personnel. The propulsion system is based on three engines delivering 2,910bkW at 1,800RPM, with the
middle engine configured to supplement the twin gensets when additional power is required by hydraulic deck gear
such as the crane and winch, and also the bow thruster. Van Wijngaarden Marine Services owns and operates a fleet
of 14 workboats for deep sea, coastal and inland waters around the world. Three of these are Damen Shoalbusters one 2609S and two 3009 - and a fourth is a Damen Pushy Cat 42 with over 40 years of service behind it and still going
strong. As a class, Damen Shoalbusters are exceptionally versatile, handling tasks ranging from short and long
distance towing to dredge support for offshore projects such as supporting the construction and maintenance of
windfarms. The new 3512 will be available for deployment wherever it is required. A bollard pull of 55 tons yet a draft of
less the three meters will make it invaluable for heavy towage in shallow waters, as will its ability to carry up to seven
TEU standard containers, facilitate diving, survey and dredging operations and much more besides. “This new vessel
will allow us to expand the services we offer within our target market,” said Gert Jan van Wijngaarden, general
manager at Van Wijngaarden Marine Services. “We chose Damen because it is a reliable partner; able to build the
vessel we required for a realistic price and within the time in which
we need it. In addition, the Shoalbuster is a proven workboat
design that holds its value well.” “We are delighted that Van
Wijngaarden Marine Services has returned to us for a fourth
Shoalbuster, eleven years after the first was delivered,” added Jos
van Woerkum, managing director at Damen Shipyards
Hardinxveld. “Competition for the contract was intense, so we
were very pleased when our combination of quality, price and
delivery won the deal. We believe that this latest Shoalbuster
design with its added capabilities will prove a popular addition to
the range.” The delivery date for the Shoalbuster 3512 is
scheduled for the end of March, 2016.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
CORIMA, part of the Italian Gesmar Group, one of the leading shipowners in the
country and the largest towage operator in the Adriatic, ordered a Damen ASD Tug
2810. The Damen ASD Tug 2810, which has a 60 tons bollard pull, will be deployed
in the port of Ancona. With the official signing ceremony on January 12, the new tug
is due to be delivered at the end of the year. Riccardo Vitiello, CORIMA President
and Managing Director Gesmar Group, explains the reasons behind the order. “We
already have a Damen ASD Tug 3110 and have always thought Damen is a very
good, high quality shipbuilder. We were looking for a harbor tug but also one that is
suitable for offshore terminal towage.” CORIMA serves two offshore oil
terminals owned by API Refinery so it wanted a tug with good sea-keeping
behavior to be able to operate in open sea. “We have also seen from other
Damen 2810 operators that the tug will be able to do over 60 tons bollard
pull. Coupled with this she is ideally suited for compact harbors.”
Additionally, Mr. Vitiello says, CORIMA was keen to get an ASD Tug
because it believes the ideal towing configuration is having an ASD bow
first, at the stern of a vessel, and then a tractor tug at the bow. With FiFi 1,
the tug will be Italian flagged and will replace a conventional twin-screw
tug……Just about in time to celebrate New Year’s Eve, MarineCo UK
contracted Damen Shipyards for a Multi Cat 2712. The vessel will be delivered in April 2015. Mr. Mike Conafray,
Managing Director at MarineCo stated that, after a long evaluation, with alternative builders, Damen came through with
the right vessel at the right cost, and the new vessel will comfortably sit alongside their existing all-Damen Fleet.
Marineco UK is one of the few UK operators with an all-Damen fleet. The new vessel will be named “Marineco
Havanah”, after the arrival of Mike and Kaye’s twin granddaughters Ava and Hannah. The Multi Cat 2712 is the second
contract for this new type Damen Multi Cat Series, It measures 27m in length and 12m in width. The vessel is equipped
with two engines and has a maximum bollard pull of 35 tons. Because of its measurements, the Multi Cat 2712 is a
vessel that can be used for many purposes. A decision about the working
area will be made later. The vessel is very flexible and developed according
to the Damen Standard, with attention for a logical, functional and
maintenance friendly design of wheelhouse and deck layout. Damen has a
long standing relationship with MarineCo, previously delivering high speed
support vessels, Multiple FCS 2610 Twin Axes, a Damen Stan Tug 2608,
Multi Cats and Damen Shoalbusters to the flourishing company. MarineCo is
an offshore industrial company, currently, their Stan Tug 2608 is operating in
Abu Dhabi, towing rock barges 24 hours a day. The Multi Cat, dating four
decades back, is a highly successful all-round workhorse. Multi Cats around
the world with Bureau Veritas Unrestricted Navigation and IVW/MCA service
notation steadily perform the duties they are designed for in a variety of markets, such as dredging, towing and offshore
wind. From anchor, pipeline or cutter-head handling and repair, to transporting fuel, supplies, spare parts and crew
transport to wind turbines. Multi Cats have a large working deck, one or two cranes and both a stern and blow roller.
Larger Multi Cats can be equipped with Dynamic Positioning e.g. DP2. From shifting dredgers from one location to
another, to assisting cable-laying barges – a Multi Cat can be deployed for many river, inshore and offshore tasks.
Marineco UK is an Edinburgh based operator, established in 1996, operating various types of Damen-built vessels
throughout the world 24/7. Marineco UK employs over 70 staff and crew from as far afield as Mexico to Singapore……
ARC Towage of Trinidad & Tobago has taken delivery of the last of a series of four Damen ASD 2810 Tugs. All four
have been delivered in less than 18 months. The speed of delivery was one of the reasons ARC Towage chose Damen
for its new vessels. “Manatee” and “Atlantic Legacy” left Damen Shipyards Galati (Romania) and safely arrived in the
th
st
port of Chaguaramas, Trinidad on 12 December, ready to start work on 1 January. All four have a 60 ton bollard pull
and max speed of 12.9kn. The sister vessels have been adapted to
comply with the latest international LNG handling regs. They will provide
towage, escorting, berthing and unberthing services for LNG carriers
under a long-term contract for a leading energy company. The vessels
are equipped with ‘rig savers’ on all engines: remote shut-off valves,
remote-closing air intakes, gas detection systems and explosion-proof
lighting. Damen Shipyards is also responsible for commissioning and
hand-over. The first two, “Kairi” and “Guapo Warrior”, are already
working and being used for crew training and familiarization purposes.
Damen will provide after sales support from its Service Hub in Curaçao.

Empresa Portuaria Nacional (EPN), the Nicaraguan port authority,
took delivery of two newbuilds from Damen. The vessels, a Damen
Stan Tug 2608 and a Cutter Suction Dredger CSD350 are completed
and underway. Damen has built both vessels at its yards in the
Netherlands. Damen Sales Manager Pieter Becker signed the contract
for the Stan Tug 2608 on 2 September, during a maritime trade
mission to Nicaragua organized by the Netherlands Council for Trade.
The contract for the dredger followed shortly afterwards. The Stan Tug
2608, named “El Danto”, was built at Damen Shipyards Gorinchem.
She sailed to Puerto Corinto, Nicaragua, the country’s largest port, on
her own keel. “The port already has smaller Damen tugs in its fleet,” says Mr. Becker. “Now, though, they need a more
powerful harbor tug, to work with the largest vessels the port handles. The Stan Tug 2608, with a 47 ton bollard pull, is
a perfect fit for the job.”….In addition to the ASD 2810 Hybrid “Multratug 28” (see page 11), Multraship and Damen
Shipyards Group confirmed an agreement for the end of first-quarter 2015, two state-of-the-art ASD Tugs 3212, sister
vessels to the 83 ton bollard pull, 32.7m x 12.8m x 5.35m “Multratug 19” powered by a
pair of 2,525kW CAT 3516C-HDs, built by Damen in Romania and delivered in 2012.
The tugs will have excellent sea-keeping behavior, superb maneuverability and
outstanding towing characteristics…….On 9 December - five years after delivery of the
two ASD Tugs 2810 “KTK Tribon” and “KTK Barakuda” - Damen and Kompania di Tou
Korsou (KTK) signed an agreement for delivery of two Stan Tugs 1205. KTK, a 100%
subsidiary of Curaçao Ports Authority (CPA), is responsible for all harbor towage and
mooring services in all ports of Curaçao. Mr. Humberto de Castro, CPA’s CEO says:
“We value our long lasting relationship with Damen Shipyards which is based on mutual
trust, quality and service.” The two Stan Tugs will be the first in a replacement
program of KTK’s fleet of line handling/pilot launches. They will be delivered April
2015…… On 30 October, Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) CEO Mr. Hashem Sayed
Hashem attended the naming ceremony of the ASD 3212 tug “KOC Shahem” at
Damen Shipyards Galati. The LR +100A1 classed “KOC Shahem” is the second in
a series of 14 tugs that Damen is building for KOC to assist tankers at near shore
loading terminals and at new single point moorings offshore. “KOC Shahem” is
powered by a pair of Wartsila 8L26s developing a total of 7,098HP Mcr at
1,000RPM. The two companies have a lasting relationship that spans over 25
years. KOC awarded Damen the contract to design, construct and deliver the series of tugs in September 2012.
Damen Shipyards Galati is constructing all the vessels. The cooperation between KOC and Damen dates back a
quarter of a century, when Damen delivered several fast crew vessels and the
39.65m, 5,600HP FiFi and terminal tug, “Sabahi”, to KOC in 1990. The substantial
contract covers two vessel types, nine of Damen’s new, successful ASD 3212
vessels with a bollard pull of 80 tons and five of the well-known ASD 2810 design,
with a 50 tons bollard pull. Whilst the vessels are based on proven designs, Damen
is extensively tailoring them to meet KOC’s requirements……Sharjah Ports
Authority and Damen Shipyards officially celebrated the keel laying of two new
vessels on December 11. Mr. Mohammed Meer Al Sarrah, Director of the
Department of Seaports and Customs at the Hamriyah Free Zone Authority and
Sharjah Airport International Free Zone presided over the ceremony, which was held at Damen Shipyards Sharjah, a
new facility in the Dutch Group. The United Arab Emirates port and customs authority
has been a long-term customer of Damen and already has eight Damen Stan Tugs in its
fleet. The new Damen ASD Tug 2411 is the port’s first ASD tug and the Damen Stan
Pilot 1605 FRP, boasts the latest pilot boat design, with a chimed hull and modified Axe
Bow, providing superior sea keeping abilities. The new pilot vessel is capable of 33
knots. The order for the two new vessels is the first time the Port Authority will take
delivery of vessels built in Hamriyah Free Zone in Sharjah, which is one of three ports
owned by Sharjah Ports Authority. With a 67 ton bollard pull ahead, the Damen ASD
Tug 2411 will be deployed in Khor Fakkan, while the pilot boat will be stationed in Port
Khalid. The ASD Tug is equipped with FiFi 1 and water spraying notation. Based in the
Hamriyah Free Zone, Damen Shipyards Sharjah FZE was opened by His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan Bin Mohammed
Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah on January 13, 2014. Currently, eight vessels are

Construction continues at Diversified Marine, Inc. in Portland, Oregon on Hull
29, the Robert Allan Ltd. design, 5,800HP, 80’ ASD tug “Lela Franco” for Harley
Marine Services of Seattle, Washington as final sections (photo upper right / left) are
delivered to the drydock while her sister-tug “Michelle Sloan” (Hull 28) (photo lower
right) is getting ready for sea-trials. Towing gear for both tugs is being provided by
Markey Machinery of Seattle, Washington. The 65 ton bollard pull tugs are
expected to be delivered early – mid 2015. These tugs will be the fifth and sixth
newly built azimuthing tugs to the Harley Marine Service fleet in less than two
years. The vessels will enhance Harley Marine’s ship assist and tanker escort
business by bringing more horsepower and presence to the market. The two
winch suite on the “Lela Franco” and “Michelle Sloan” consist of the Markey
Machinery DEPC-48, 50HP hawser winch and DEPC-32, 20HP aft deck winch.
The DEPC-48 electric hawser winch, with encoder for continuous stall
capability and designed for lead line off the top of the drum, has a drum
capacity for up to 500’ of 9” Spectra type line and a rated performance of
28,000 pounds at 54fpm. The air-set and air-released brake is capable of
holding 612,900 pounds. Included in the package is the time tested Markey
Machinery Render/Recover ® feature. This feature provides the Captain with
the ability to switch the winch into Render/Recover ® mode at which point the
winch will then automatically render and recover line at adjustable tension,
within the high-speed range. This feature allows the Captain to keep both
hands, and 100% of his attention, on the controls and the assisted vessel while
maneuvering or repositioning the tug. When it is time for the tug to apply
steering-force, the Captain has only to set the main drum brake. The design also features NexGen® winch controls
which incorporates a revolutionary new Automatic Power Assisted Freewheel mode or A_PAF. The A_PAF works
automatically to dampen drum motion while freewheeling and operates the clutch automatically by reacting to drum
speed. Tethered higher speed tug maneuvers can be accommodated without the need for the tug operator to manually
clutch out and clutch back in– further enabling hand-free operation of the
winch and enhancing safer tug operations. The added Line Tension Display,
mounted in the wheelhouse, displays full-time active line-tension when drum
brake is set. These features clearly make this a state of the art winch system.
The electric aft winch is the Markey model DEPC-32 which runs on a 20HP
Nema-B Marine Duty Motor capable of stall torques of 150% of rated torque.
The DEPC-32 has a drum capacity of 250’ of 6.5” Spectra line and a rated pull
of 11,350 pounds at 50fpm. It also has a total brake capacity of 214,000
pounds and with both local and remote controls, the DEPC-32 is built with
safety in mind by minimizing the need for “hands on the line”, reducing the risk
of active line handling by crew members. With high braking capacity and fast
line speeds, the DEPC-32 is a powerful machine, in a compact design. Markey
Machinery was founded in 1907.
VT Halter Marine of Pascagoula, Mississippi launched the A/TB tug
“Kim M. Bouchard” (Hull VTHM 2018), the first of two AT/B tugs under a

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Sanmar AS has started construction in its new shipyard in Altinova, Turkey currently 50 minutes by car and ferry away from Tuzla where Sanmar’s existing
modern custom built shipyard is located. Upon completion of İzmit Bay Crossing the
distance between two shipyards will decrease to 20 minutes. The construction of
several vessels has already started at the new shipyard. When totally completed, the
new shipyard will be in total approx. 50,000m2 of which 26,000m2 will comprise a
covered and closed production area. The infrastructure is being designed using the
latest technology to ensure the maximum
standards of health and safety and
respecting the needs of the environment.
Sanmar aims to be the ‘greenest’ shipyard in
Turkey. In its Tuzla Shipyard (which is to remain in full production) Sanmar
builds high quality and specialized tugboats. When the new yard is up and
running completely the company intends to extend its scope with the
construction of more sophisticated vessels adding to its already extensive
portfolio of tugboats with AHTSs, PSVs, offshore construction vessels, and
those using alternative fuels such as LNG, for which it has already built a fine
reputation. In 2014, Sanmar broke its previous record and delivered 17 tugboats to 10 countries……Sanmar won a
contract involving three vessels from Port of Fujairah. Comprising three 70 ton bollard pull Ramparts 2400SX tugs, the
order was confirmed at a signing ceremony held at Port of Fujairah in the presence of His Highness Sheikh Saleh Bin
Mohammed Al Sharqi, Chairman, Department of Industry and Economy, Government of Fujairah. The three vessels
will be the 16th, 17th and 18th vessels of its class. The vessels will have Caterpillar 3516C main diesel engines, each
developing 2,100kW at 1,600RPM, coupled to Rolls-Royce US 255 FP type Z-drives to guarantee 70 tons bollard pull
ahead, and Fi-Fi 1 class notation. Port of Fujairah is the only multi-purpose port on
the Eastern seaboard of the United Arab Emirates, approx. 70nm from the Straits of
Hormuz. Initial Construction of the Port started in 1978 as part of the economic
development of the UAE. Full operations commenced in 1983. Since then the Port
has embarked on a continuing process of enhancement to both its facilities and its
comprehensive range of functions. Port of Fujairah is already recognized as a major
international supply, distribution and trading hub for Bunkering and Oil products. The
ADCOP pipeline and SPM’s have introduced an additional UAE Crude export market.
The infrastructure of the Port continues to develop. Two additional berths will
become operational this year and a VLCC Berth (draft 26m) will complete by June 2016. New tugs from Sanmar are
required to meet that expansion and ensure the continued efficiency of Marine services at the Port of Fujairah……The
high level of cooperation between both the operational and construction teams of Sanmar AS and the designers at
Robert Allan Ltd has resulted in another new design of tug/workboat. Named “Yenicay”, this first of class compact ASD
achieves a 30 Ton bollard pull in a vessel measuring 18.7m x 9.2m with a draft of 3.7m. The ABS classed vessel has
joined Sanmar's own fleet of three other tugs at Petkim Port, Aliaga, Izmir, Turkey. Constructed in Sanmar Tuzla
Shipyard, this rugged craft is powered by a pair of Caterpillar C32 main
engines, each developing 970kW at 1,800RPM driving Veth VZ-900 azimuth
drives with carbon composite shafts turning 1,700mm dia propellers inside
high efficiency nozzles with stainless steel inner surfaces. Auxiliary generator
sets are also by Caterpillar - a pair of 86ekW C4.4s. For external fire-fighting
operations, the vessel is equipped with a main engine PTO driven 600m3/h
capacity pump and a manually operated foam/water monitor, both supplied
by FFS. Below deck, “Yenicay” has two twin-berth cabins, a mess room,
pantry and WC. All floors are covered with IMO approved imitation teak and
special care has been given to the resilient mounting of all engines and
essential equipment, As a result, the sound level was measured as 60dB in
the lower accommodation during sea trials. Both wheelhouse and accommodation are heated, vented and airconditioned by chiller system, moreover, an optional split unit is available for installation in the wheelhouse as a
heat/climate package. For towing operations, the vessel’s deck machinery consists of a DMT TW-E100kN electrical
forward winch and a Data aft tow hook. Cast stainless steel towing staples on both fore and aft decks give the vessel
the capability to tow in both directions. The vessel is heavily fendered with 500x250mm cylindrical fendering at the bow
extending below with 300x300mm type. Sides and stern are covered with 300mm D type fenders. Sea trials confirmed
the advance performance predictions with a bollard pull of 31 Tons and a free-running speed of 12 knots being
attained.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Sanmar AS has discontinued the speculative construction of its 25m long,
twin-screw “Dogancay” series. It will now only be available on special order.
Sanmar Projects Director, Ali Gürün commented: “It is still a fantastic boat
and can be a good alternative for low budget, low traffic ports, but there are
not many twin-screw inquiries anymore. In our very early days as a
tugbuilder, it was the mainstay of our production with numerous versions
serving across the world in places such as France, Hong Kong, Martinique,
Mexico, Pakistan, UAE and the UK as well as here around the Turkish
coast.” Designed by Robert Allan Limited in 1999, the Dogancay series
has, over the intervening 15 years, spawned a number of ideas and
developments which manifest themselves in today’s extensive range of
Sanmar ASD series of tugs……A second tug for Svitzer AS was delivered, courtesy of a Redwise delivery crew, to the
Port of Tyne when the appropriate named “Svitzer Tyne” (ex-Bogancay III) arrived on the northeast English Coast. This
order followed on the summer 2014 delivery of a sister-tug to Svitzer in Peru. Both vessels are “Bogacay Class” vessels
measuring 24.4m x 11.25m beam with a 4.28m depth and a 60 ton bollard pull derived from a pair of 1,765kW CAT
3512 C-HD engines, developing a total of 4,800HP at 1,800RPM. Designed
by Robert Allan Ltd., the relatively new exclusive “Bogacay” model is based
on Ramparts 2400SX series exclusively developed for Sanmar. This new
series close cousin of the highly successful Ulupinar Series (three of which
were brokered by Marcon), but with 2m additional beam and forecastle deck
to offer an MLC 2006 compliance with exceptionally high level of stability for
areas subject to adverse sea conditions. “Being on the North Sea coast, the
port of Tyne is frequently exposed to some of the more severe weather the
UK sees. With 60 tons bollard pull, Svitzer Tyne has been ordered and built
ready to serve the needs of port of Tyne.” says Phil Dulson, managing
director North UK for Svitzer Europe. “Svitzer Tyne” is classed ABS +A1,
Towing Vessel, +AMS, Unrestricted Service……A contract involving seven vessels was signed last fall with Aqaba
Port Marine Services Company (APMSCO) in Jordan. Comprising four 80-ton bollard pull Terminal RAstar 2800
escort / offshore terminal tugs (Photo left of earlier Rastar 2800 built for
Seaspan), two conventional twin screw Rascal 1500 line-handling tugs
and a pilot boat, the order was confirmed at a signing held at
Sanmar’s Tuzla HQ, where a keel laying ceremony also took place for
all seven vessels. The six tugs are all Canada-based Robert Allan Ltd
designs whilst the pilot boat is from the pen of pilot boat specialist,
Alastair Cameron of Camarc Ltd in the UK. The RAstar 2800 design
tugs have been specially modified to suit the requirements of the
buyer for terminal services. The four vessels will guarantee 80 tons
bollard pull astern. In addition, LNG protection will be fitted to make
the vessels suitable to operate at LNG terminals. All essential
electrical equipment will be certified ex-proof, suitable for use in a Zone 2 LNG environment. The tugs will also have a
bigger accommodation area. Commented Sanmar’s project director Ali Gürün: “This was a much coveted contract and
we are particularly pleased to have won it. By employing the world’s leading designers in their fields and ensuring best
construction practice, we are able to offer top quality products. This order follows the contract to build five vessels for
Smit Lamnalco Australia, bringing the total to 12 for this customer” he added. APMSCO is incorporated as a private
shareholding company owned by Aqaba Development Corporation
(ADC) and Lamnalco Jordan. This latter organization is a joint venture
between Smit Lamnalco and Jordan National Shipping Lines. It has
been operating in port of Aqaba providing pilotage, towing and mooring
services to vessels since 2007. In addition, the company operates
marine slipways, provision supply (oil and water) to vessels, and other
services, including the rental of machinery and labor. Recently
APMSCO signed a 10 year contract with the Jordanian Ministry of
Energy and Mineral Resources for the provision of marine services for
the FSRU and LNG carriers of the Jordan LNG project which will be
operational in April 2015 for securing Jordan’s LNG needs.

Three large new escort tugs contracted by Norwegian operator
Østensjø Rederi, will feature Wärtsilä dual-fuel (DF) engines
integrated with a customized gas storage and supply system also
supplied by Wärtsilä. The tugs will operate primarily on LNG but the
Wärtsilä DF engines provide the flexibility to select the most
suitable fuel according to availability, price and local environmental
restrictions. The contract for the Wärtsilä solution was signed in
December 2014. The design of the tugs has been carried out by the
designer Robert Allan Ltd in Canada,
in close cooperation with Østensjø
Rederi. The overall LNG system,
which incorporates Wärtsilä’s unique LNGPac fuel system, a fully integrated gas handling
system, and the Wärtsilä Gas Valve Unit (GVU), has been specially designed by Wärtsilä
to accommodate the need for a compact solution. The tugs will be powered by 6-cylinder
Wärtsilä 34DF dual-fuel engines. The Wärtsilä equipment will be delivered during the first
half of 2016. “These are trend setting tugs in that they provide environmental sustainability
through the use of LNG fuel. Wärtsilä is the technology leader in making this trend
possible. At the same time, the flexibility of the dual-fuel engine technology also ensures a
high level of operational security since the switch from gas to diesel can be made at any
time without loss of speed or power,” says Mr. Carl Johan Amundsen, Project Manager at
Østensjø Rederi. The vessels are designed to have a bollard pull of 100 tons, and will
operate at Statoil’s Melkøya terminal near Hammerfest, Norway. Wärtsilä and Østensjø
have cooperated closely to develop the chosen LNG solution for these new vessels.
Østensjø Rederi is a leading provider of offshore services and operates a fleet of 28
modern vessels. The company’s tugboats currently operate at four terminals located in Norway, England and Ireland.
The group has offices in Norway, the UK, Ireland and Malta…… Drydocks World (DDW) based in Dubai, UAE, has
contracted Wärtsilä to design and supply the propulsion and other
equipment for a new harbor tug that will operate on LNG. This will be
the first harbor tug in the Middle East region to operate on gas. The
order was signed in November of last year. The 29m long tug is the
first of a series of nine such vessels to be built and operated by DDW.
The project is part of a ‘green’ initiative launched by the Dubai
government, and is intended to set an example for promoting
environmental sustainability throughout the region. “We are happy to
work with Wärtsilä to promote a green image for our harbor work.
Wärtsilä is a solution provider with vast experience and expertise in
gas fuel systems. The company has a strong local presence and is
capable of providing the support needed,” says Mr. Khamis Juma Buamim, Chairman DDW. Wärtsilä is to provide a full
scope of solutions for this Eco tug, emphasizing both the company’s leading position in enabling the use of LNG as a
marine fuel, and its unique capability to provide a full range of solutions from initial design to lifecycle support. In all,
Wärtsilä will supply the ship design, two 9-cylinder Wärtsilä 20DF dual-fuel engines, Wärtsilä Steerable Thrusters
(WST), type WST-18 Compact thrusters, the automation equipment, and the Wärtsilä LNGPac system. The Wärtsilä
LNGPac is a complete fuel gas handling system for LNG fuelled ships. It includes the bunkering station, the LNG tank
and related process equipment, as well as the control and monitoring system. With the Wärtsilä WST-18 thrusters, this
tug will be equipped with one of the most advanced products in the marine industry. These units, which are part of the
new Wärtsilä Steerable Thruster (WST) Compact series, provide optimal efficiency, high hydrodynamic performance
and easier maintenance. By achieving outstanding efficiency at different
power outputs, the WST Compact series reduces fuel consumption, thereby
further lowering the vessel’s environmental footprint. “The shift towards the
use of LNG fuel is building up speed across the world. We at Wärtsilä feel
proud that we have been at the forefront of this movement, first through the
development of dual-fuel engine technology, and then by developing a full
range of integrated solutions serving the complete gas value chain. This will
be the first harbor tug in the Middle East to operate on gas, which indicates
the growing importance of environmental issues everywhere,” says Mr.
Ibrahim Behairy, Sales Director, Middle East, Wärtsilä Ship Power.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Wärtsilä advises their first quarter 2015 interim reflects a weaker marine market as
expected, but this was compensated by Services and Power Plant ordering activity.
Wärtsilä’s first quarter order intake totaled EUR 1,285 million (1,115), an increase of
15% compared to the corresponding period last year. Compared to the previous quarter,
order intake decreased by 16% (EUR 1,522 million in 4Q2014). The first quarter bookto-bill ratio was 1.30 (1.12). Ship Power’s order intake totaled EUR 336 million (440), a
decrease of 24% compared to the corresponding period last year. Compared to the
previous quarter, order intake decreased by 27% (EUR 460 million 4Q2014). In the merchant segment, Wärtsilä
received an order to supply twenty generating sets for a series of five container vessels being built for COSCO at the
Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding Group yard in China. The generating sets will be produced by the Wärtsilä Yuchai
Engine Co. Ltd. joint venture. In the cruise & ferry segment, Wärtsilä was contracted to supply dual-fuel engines and
fixed pitch propellers to a new fast ropax ferry ordered by Tallink Grupp, based in Estonia. The ship will be built at the
Meyer Turku shipyard in Finland. First quarter orders also included a contract to supply reliquefaction equipment to an
LNG terminal project in the UK. Gas carriers represented 41% of the first quarter order intake, while the conventional
merchant segment accounted for 18%. Offshore, cruise & ferry and special vessels each accounted for 11%. Navy
represented 3% and other orders 5% of the total.
Björn Rosengren, President and CEO: “As anticipated, the year 2015 started with a slow marine market. Low oil prices
are causing a wait and see attitude among offshore customers that, combined with subdued vessel contracting,
resulted in fewer orders being received within the Ship Power business. In the Power Plants business, market
sentiment is improving. Economic growth in the emerging markets and electricity consumption growth in the USA
supported power plant investments, and our quotation activity indicates a continued good level of underlying customer
demand. Services’ development was clearly the highlight of the first quarter. The increased maintenance activity seen
towards the end of last year continued into the first quarter, boosting both order intake and sales. Services’ sales grew
by 11%, which compensated for the lower delivery volumes in the Ship Power and Power Plants businesses.
Consequently, Group sales reached a similar level to that of the corresponding period last year and profitability
improved somewhat to 10.1%. We remain committed to our guidance for 2015, and continue to see some opportunities
for sales growth and improved profitability despite the prevailing market uncertainties.”
During first quarter 2015, 222 contracts for new vessels were registered. This represents a decline in contracting
activity of approx. 58% compared to 523 contracts reported in the corresponding period for 2014. The low market
volumes continue to put pressure on newbuilding prices. In the conventional merchant segment, activity in dry bulk
markets subsided, while increased earnings supported the contracting of crude oil tankers. Interest in gas carrier
contracting (LNG & LPG) continues, although first quarter volumes were lower than in the very active 2014. A total of
23 (43) gas carriers were contracted during the first quarter. Demand for offshore vessels remained subdued as
uncertainties around oil price recovery drove oil company spending cuts. First quarter offshore contracting favored
support vessels. The top three shipbuilding countries continued to control contracting activity in terms of compensated
gross tonnage. South Korea’s share of confirmed contracts increased to 38%, mainly due to the large volume of orders
for containerships, tankers and LNG carriers placed with South Korean yards. China secured 29% of confirmed
contracts, whereas Japan’s share was 26%. Wärtsilä’s share of the medium-speed main engine market was 56% (52%
at end previous quarter). The market share in auxiliary engines was 4% (3% at end previous quarter).
Based on the market situation during 2014 and GDP forecasts for 2015, the market for liquid and gas fuelled power
generation is expected to remain challenging. However, the trend towards distributed, flexible gas-fired power
generation is continuing. The increasing deployment of intermittent renewable power, such as wind and solar, in many
parts of the world will require flexible solutions to balance fluctuations in the grid. In OECD countries, slow economic
growth continues to limit demand for new power plants. The outlook for shipping and shipbuilding market environment
remains cautious due to weaker market conditions in dry bulk and offshore segments. Low oil prices continue to impact
investments in exploration and development, limiting demand for offshore drilling and support vessels. Overcapacity
continues to affect demand for conventional merchant vessels. However, increased scrapping together with a more
balanced fleet growth support a gradual recovery in the freight market. The decline in oil prices presents opportunities
in markets for crude oil tankers and containerships, as lower bunkering costs are expected to have a positive impact on
operating expenses for owners. The sentiment in the gas carrier market remains healthy; activity is however expected
to revert to normal levels after strong ordering volumes in 2014. The importance of fuel efficiency and environmental
regulations is clearly visible, driving interest in environmental solutions and gas as a marine fuel for the broader marine
markets. Wärtsilä expects net sales for 2015 to grow by 0-10% and operational profitability (EBIT% before nonrecurring items) to be 12.0-12.5%. Guidance excludes impact of the L-3 Marine Systems International acquisition.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
2014 was a year of refocusing for Wärtsilä on their core areas of expertise, and on developing business through new
partnerships and acquisitions. It was also a year of good performance despite challenges in the market environment.
Net sales grew by 4% with profitability at 11.9%. Ship Power’s order intake increased by 6% during 2014, despite the
general slowdown in vessel contracting and the lower demand for offshore vessels. The growth is largely due to a
strong position in gas carriers, where contracting remained robust. It demonstrates
the benefits of a broad offering and wide market exposure, which compensates for
shifts in demand within different vessel categories. Gas carriers represented 34%
of order intake, while interesting orders for dual-fuel engines and related systems
were also received in other vessel segments. During the year Wärtsilä launched a
new LNGPac gas handling system and a new dual-fuel engine, the Wärtsilä 46DF
as a prime mover solution for large offshore units as well as LNG Carriers, cruise
ships, Ro-Ro/Pax and ferries. The Wärtsilä 46DF is a four-stroke dual-fuel engine
that can be run on natural gas, heavy fuel oil (HFO) or marine diesel oil (MDO).
According to the IMF, GDP grew by 3.3% in 2014. Uncertainty over global economic development continues. GDP
growth is expected to remain broadly stable in emerging markets and developing economies in 2015. Although
forecasts have been revised downwards, these economies will continue to account for the bulk of global growth. Over
50% of Wärtsilä’s net sales came from non-OECD countries in 2014. In advanced economies the stronger than
expected recovery in economic growth in the US is expected to continue. Demand in Wärtsilä’s end-markets is largely
driven by GDP development. In power generation markets, macroeconomic uncertainty and slower global growth
projections continued to impact investments. However, demand for new power plants was supported by economic
growth in emerging markets, which account for the majority of Power Plants’ order intake. Several orders were also
received from the US, as strengthening of the US dollar against the euro had a positive impact on demand.
Shipbuilding markets continue to be focused on Asia. China and South Korea accounted for 41% and 27% respectively
of confirmed vessel contracts in 2014 in terms of compensated gross tonnage. Overcapacity is still one of the main
obstacles to a full recovery in shipping. Stronger global GDP growth would be required for this overcapacity to be
absorbed. An improved global economic outlook would also boost spending on discretionary maintenance and
investments, benefitting the Services business. Oil prices declined significantly in 2014, mainly due to supply related
factors. In marine markets, lower oil prices will impact demand for new offshore vessels. In other vessel segments,
lower bunkering costs may have a positive impact on operating expenses for ship owners. Offshore related orders
accounted for 28% of Ship Power’s order intake in 2014 and approx. 10% of Group order intake.
Demand in shipbuilding and shipping industries is mainly driven by developments within the global economy and the
impact on trade and transportation capacity requirements. The global economy also influences fuel prices, which in turn
has both a direct and an indirect impact on marine and oil & gas industries. The price, availability and demand for fuel
drives development in the oil & gas industry, while in the general shipping industry, it increases the demand for efficient
vessels. Other factors, such as shipyard capacity, newbuild prices, decommissioning and scrapping, and interest and
freight rates, also affect these industries. Global demand for new vessels drives Wärtsilä Ship Power’s business, in
particular ships built for seaborne cargo transportation,
offshore oil drilling, production and support, cruise and
ferry services, and for naval use. Another important driver
is the development of environmental regulations and their
impact on the demand for optimized vessel efficiency,
environmental solutions and gas as a marine fuel.
Wärtsilä’s field of competitors is broad. It includes engine
companies, such as MAN D&T, Caterpillar, and Chinese
licensee manufacturers, propeller makers such as
Schottel and Thrustmaster, and environmental and
auxiliary equipment providers like Alfa Laval. It also
includes electrical and automation houses, notably
Siemens, ABB and Kongsberg, pump and gas system
providers, such as Colfax and Cryostar, and companies
with broad offerings like Rolls-Royce or Hyundai Heavy
Industries. Wärtsilä is recognized as a proven supplier of
innovative and sustainable technologies across their
portfolio serving the marine and oil & gas markets.

Marcon International, Inc.
Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
During the year 2014 a total of 1,769 contracts for new
vessels were registered, compared to 2,201 in 2013. In
the traditional merchant markets contracting activity
was slow, and the demand for offshore vessels was
clearly lower than in the previous year. Ordering of gas
carriers (LNG and LPG carriers) was, however, robust
and the cruise vessel markets developed well with
contracting volumes doubling compared to 2013.
Wärtsilä’s share of the medium-speed main engine
market was 52% (51% end previous quarter). Despite
the slowdown in vessel contracting, Ship Power’s order
intake increased by 6% to EUR 1,746 million during
2014. The ordering of gas handling systems and dual
fuel engines for LNG and LPG carriers was strong, and
gas as a marine fuel is being increasingly applied also in other vessel markets. Among the noteworthy orders was the
contract to supply an integrated solution, comprising the main propulsion equipment, the gas fuel supply system, and
the cargo handling system, for three multi-gas carriers being built for the Danish operator Evergas. Ship Power’s net
sales increased by 30% and totaled EUR 1,702 million, which represents 36% of Wärtsilä’s net sales.
Despite the difficult economic situation, the commercial vehicle and engineering
player MAN managed to increase its operating profit in 2014. This is attributable
to the significantly improved profitability of business with large motors and
machines. The strong position in the European commercial vehicle business
also helped to respond to the market slump in Brazil or Russia. Even though as
expected the European commercial vehicles market has not fully recovered from
the pull-forward effects from the Euro 6 emission standard, MAN succeeded in
defending its position in the key commercial vehicles market. Even in Brazil,
MAN maintained its truck market leadership for the twelfth consecutive year. In
this field as in the majority of other markets, however, declining unit sales figures
led to more intense competition and lower returns. The situation in the Power
Engineering business area was mixed. At MAN Diesel & Turbo, a slight upturn in merchant shipbuilding led to a healthy
order intake in this business. Orders for new ships — and hence demand for propulsion and auxiliary units — were at a
high level, most notably in the first half of 2014. Demand for special-purpose ships also remained high. By contrast,
growth in the market for power plant solutions slackened. Demand was also low in the Turbomachinery strategic
business unit, primarily due to the weak market situation in China, India, and Brazil. By contrast, our Renk investee
again recorded an outstanding fiscal year. The MAN Group generated sales revenue of €14.3 billion in 2014, down
10% year-on-year. Both the Commercial Vehicles and the Power Engineering business areas posted declines. MAN
Truck & Bus generated sales revenue of €8.4 billion, down 9% compared with the previous year, while MAN Latin
America saw its sales revenue drop 24% year-on-year to €2.3 billion. The decrease at MAN Diesel & Turbo was not
quite as significant, with sales revenue declining 3% to €3.3 billion. At €480 million, Renk again recorded sales revenue
on a level with the previous year.
The MAN Group’s order intake amounted to €15.3 billion, down 5% on the prior-period
figure. Order intake in the Commercial Vehicles business area decreased 9% to €11.4
billion, while the figure for large-bore engines, turbo machinery, and gear units
remained roughly level year-on-year, at €3.9 billion. In the Commercial Vehicles
business area, MAN SE’s Executive Board expects unit sales for 2015 to be slightly
below the previous year. Operating profit and the operating return on sales will be
slightly down on the prior-year figures amid continued strong competition. In the Power
Engineering business area, the Executive Board expects order intake in 2015 to be
slightly below the prior-year level. Sales revenue should be slightly higher year-onyear. Operating profit and the operating return on sales will show moderate
improvement. The currently flat markets will continue to be negatively impacted by ongoing high competitive pressure in
2015. As a consequence, the Executive Board assumes a higher single-digit operating return on sales. The MAN
Group will thus see sales revenue on a level with the previous year and a stable operating profit. The operating return
on sales will remain at roughly the 2014 figure.

Rolls-Royce has been awarded a contract worth £20m with the American owner Edison Chouest
Offshore (ECO). The contract for ship equipment comprises Azimuth main propulsion, propulsion
control systems, anchor winches and an anchor handling crane for an Anchor Handling Tug Supply
vessel. The contract includes an option for equipment for a second vessel of similar type. The
vessel is designed by ECO’s North American Shipbuilding and will be built to
Polar Class 3, equipped to operate in arctic waters with air temperature down to
minus 40 degrees Celsius. Both thrusters and deck machinery will be developed
for operations under the harsh conditions in this area. John Knudsen, RollsRoyce, President - Commercial Marine, said: “We are proud that Edison
Chouest Offshore once again prefers our technology and equipment for a vessel
designed and built for demanding operations in the Arctic region.” The vessel
will be built at ECO’s yard LaShip in Houma, Louisiana, with estimated delivery by the end of
2016……. Rolls-Royce is to deliver an extensive package of advanced deck machinery to six new high-end AHTSs to
be built by Kleven in Norway for the Danish ship owner Maersk Supply Service. The contract with Kleven is worth in
excess of £54m to Rolls-Royce, and includes an option for an additional four vessels. This represents the largest single
contract for deck machinery that Rolls-Royce has won. The 95m long vessels are designed by Salt Ship Design, and
will be built at Kleven's two shipyards in Norway: Kleven Verft and Myklebust Verft. Each vessel is of Salt200 design
and will be equipped with a triple drum main anchor handling winch with a
pull capacity of 500 tons; two secondary winches; cargo securing winches
and other auxiliary winches; and a dry bulk cargo system. The delivery from
Rolls-Royce also includes rudders and steering gear for all six vessels. An
additional option for an Anchor Recovery Frame, used for assisting launch and recovery of anchors, is also specified.
Ståle Rasmussen, CEO of Kleven, said: "We look forward to working closely with Rolls-Royce on this large and
important project for Maersk. This large order shows the capabilities of the maritime cluster in Norway, and close
cooperation within the cluster is an asset to our customers." John Knudsen, President Commercial Marine, RollsRoyce, said: "The more complex vessels become, and the greater the focus on safety and efficiency, the more
differentiated are the kinds of deck machinery our customers need. We are very proud to be chosen by Kleven and
Maersk for this significant order." The first six vessels are to be delivered from the Kleven yards between Q4 2016 and
Q3 2017. If options for an additional four vessels are declared, the last vessel in the series will be delivered in Q1 2018.
Cummins Inc. fourth quarter revenue of $5.1 billion, up 11% from the same quarter in 2013.
The year-over-year increase was driven by higher revenues in North America which more than
offset lower demand in Brazil and Europe. Earnings before interest and taxes were $629 million
for the fourth quarter or 12.4% of sales. These results include $32 million of expense
associated with cost reduction activities in the Power Generation business. Excluding this
expense, EBIT was $661 million or 13.0% of sales. This compares to $566 million or 12.3% of
sales a year ago. Net income attributable to Cummins in the fourth quarter was $444 million
compared to $432 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. Revenues for the full year were a record
$19.2 billion, 11% higher than 2013. Acquisitions contributed 3% to revenue growth. Revenues
in North America increased 20% and international sales grew 2%. Within international markets, growth in China more
than offset weaker demand in Brazil and India. EBIT for the year was $2.5 billion or 13.0% of sales. Excluding one-time
items, EBIT was $2.53 billion or 13.2% compared to $2.16 billion or 12.5% of sales in 2013. Net income attributable to
Cummins for the full year was $1.65 billion up from $1.48 billion in 2013. Engine Segment fourth quarter 2014 sales
were $2.8 billion up 11% and full year sales $11 million, up 9%.
"We reported record revenues in 2014 despite weak economic conditions in several of our most important international
markets," said Chairman and CEO Tom Linebarger. "Revenues grew 11 percent as demand in on-highway markets in
North America improved, we continued executing our distributor acquisition strategy, and we delivered strong growth in
China driven by new products. We continued to invest in future growth, reflecting our commitment to technology and
product leadership, while growing EBIT faster than sales." Cummins' improvement in profitability was driven by record
performance in the Components and Distribution businesses and higher earnings in the Engine business. Results in
the Company's Power Generation business fell short of expectations, but the actions the Company has taken to lower
costs will improve earnings going forward. Demand in North American on-highway markets is expected to improve
again in 2015, but will be partially offset by continued weakness in international markets and the negative impact of the
strong U.S. dollar. Based on the current forecast, Cummins expects full year revenues to grow between 2 and 4%, and
EBIT to be in the range of 13.5 to 14.0%.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
JT Marine, Inc. of Vancouver, Washington delivered their third
newbuilding, Jensen Maritime “Titan” class design, ASD tug “Montana”
(Hull 003) to Hyak Maritime LLC of Middletown, Delaware. The 120.0’ x
35.0’ x 19.3’ depth tug is powered by a pair of 1,998kW, 4-stroke,
medium-speed, GE Marine 8L250 diesels totaling 5,358BHP at 900RPM,
driving Schottel FP-1515, 2,600mm diameter, stainless steel azimuthing
props generating a bollard pull of approx. 80 short tons. Main engines
meet EPA Tier III and MARPOL standards. With GE 8L250 diesels, all
three tugs reportedly consume significantly less fuel and enjoy much lower
maintenance costs than other equivalently powered ocean-going tugboats.
Electrical power is provided by a pair of Marathon Electric 186kW
generators. Towing gear consists of a Markey TESD-34 double drum electric tow winch with a capacity for two 2,500’ of
2.25” wires. Tug is classed ABS +A1, Towing Vessel, +AMS, Unrestricted Service and has an ABS International
Loadline Certificate. The first two sister-tugs, the “Hawaii” built in 2013 and “Washington” built in 2014, were chartered
to Crowley Maritime. “Montana” is reportedly scheduled to go on a long-term charter to Foss Maritime of Seattle.
Reinauer Transportation Companies, LLC (RTC) of Staten Island, New York, has purchased two GE EPA Tier 4
certified marine diesel engines and two Lufkin marine propulsion gearboxes for their new A/TB Tug. The tug will be built
by Senesco Marine of North Kingstown, Rhode Island and is scheduled to be commissioned in early 2016 to transport
petroleum products in U.S. and International coastal waters. Local engine support will be provided by GE Marine’s
Distributor, Cummins MidSouth. “We chose the new GE Marine
engines because we like the robust design and component
configuration of the engine. The engine closely matches the
footprint of our current vessel design. This limits the amount of reengineering while meeting Tier 4 emissions requirements without
the complications of urea after-treatment,” said Christian Reinauer.
"Lufkin gearboxes have proven their reliability and ruggedness with
their past performance in three of our Nicole Class ATBs (Photo Right
Credit: Birk Thomas) starting in 1998.” “We are delighted that Reinauer
chose our new EPA Tier 4 certified diesel engines and look forward
to delivering it next year. Our engines require no Selective Catalytic
Reduction (SCR) after-treatment or urea injection, which saves
customers significant space, weight and infrastructure costs,” said
Afra Gerstenfeld, General Manager of GE Marine. “We also take
great pride in Reinauer’s continued confidence in our American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) rated gearboxes for
dependability in heavy-duty workboat applications such as ATBs.” said Darin Swartz, Product Management Director for
Lufkin. A study conducted by Jensen Maritime of Seattle was commissioned by GE to compare its U.S. EPA Tier 4 and
IMO Tier III compliant in-engine, urea-free solution to other solutions on the market that use urea based aftertreatment. It concluded that, for operation on a typical line-haul tug, GE’s solution:
 Reduces approx. 75% of the engine room space required by the other market solutions;
 Reduces weight by approx. 75% versus the other market solutions; and
 Does not require additional onboard equipment/storage for urea or dockside support infrastructure for urea
storage and processing.
GE Marine recently was granted U.S. EPA Tier 4 certification for its 12-cylinder
V250 marine diesel engine. GE Marine is working to achieve U.S. EPA Tier 4 and
IMO Tier III certification for its entire family of V250 and L250 marine diesel engine
models that also utilize non-SCR technology to reduce key emissions by an
estimated 70%, without use of urea based after-treatment. RTC was established in
1923 and successfully weathered, the rough waters of the Depression. The
company grew during the war years as new customers’ needs dictated an ever growing fleet. RTC continued that trend
during the post-World War II years and through the last several decades. In the 1990s, Reinauer demonstrated that it
could adapt to stringent regulatory changes imposed by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 90) by the complete
revamping of their fleet with innovative double-hulled barge designs and A/TB units. RTC’s fleet consists of over 30
double-hull liquid cargo barges with an aggregate cargo capacity in excess of 2.5 million barrels for petroleum &
chemical transportation. RTC purchased SENESCO Shipyard in 2006.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Caterpillar Inc.’s first quarter 2015 sales and revenues were $12.702 billion,
down about 4% from first-quarter 2014 sales and revenues of $13.241 billion.
“We delivered solid results for the first quarter of this year, including higher profit
than in the first quarter of 2014. Our focus on operational improvement, including
lean manufacturing and cost management, is helping in what is a tough time for
some of our important cyclical businesses. We continue to execute on improving safety, quality, inventory turns,
delivery performance and market position,” said Caterpillar Chairman and CEO Officer Doug Oberhelman. “The first
quarter wasn’t without challenges. Sales and revenues were off about 4% from the first quarter of last year, mining
remained weak and construction was down in most regions. On the plus side, Energy & Transportation turned in
another great quarter, although we don’t expect this to continue due to the oil-related portion of the business,” added
Oberhelman. “The balance sheet remained strong in the first quarter and Machinery, Energy & Transportation
operating cash flow was more than $1 billion….”
Although Caterpillar is confident in the long-term fundamentals of the oil and gas industry, in
the near term and especially in the latter part of 2015, they expect the decline in oil prices will
have a negative impact on sales. CAT expects that well servicing and drilling will be impacted
the earliest and to the greatest magnitude. Sales for gas compression are expected to remain
relatively strong in 2015 due to the continued need for global infrastructure build, and sales
related to large projects that take years to execute will likely be impacted to a lesser extent in
the short term. In addition to Energy & Transportation, Caterpillar supports the oil and gas
industry directly with construction and mining equipment—such as sales of equipment for drill
site preparation and infrastructure development and sales of mining equipment to the
Canadian oil sands. There are also a variety of indirect exposures, as countries that depend
on oil revenues may reduce expenditures for roads and other infrastructure projects. While
CAT believes lower oil prices will be positive for consumers around the world and act like a
fiscal stimulus for net oil importing countries, Caterpillar does not think the positive impact to
the overall economy will occur soon enough to have a significant impact on 2015 sales.
The 2015 outlook for sales and revenues remains unchanged at about $50 billion. However, outlook for profit per share
improved slightly. “We had a solid first quarter, which led to raising the profit outlook for 2015. However, we continue to
face headwinds and uncertainty in 2015, and our outlook for the year reflects that. We expect sales and profit in each of
the remaining three quarters of 2015 to be lower than the first quarter. We expect sales for oil applications to decline
starting in the second quarter, and from a profit perspective, the first quarter included the gain on the sale of our
remaining interest in the logistics business and that won’t repeat. The first quarter is usually the most seasonally
favorable of the year for costs, and we don’t expect the rest of the year to be as favorable. In addition, we expect some
increase in research and development expense as we go through the year,” Oberhelman said.
The decrease in first quarter sales and revenues was primarily due to unfavorable impact of currency, resulting from
weakening of the euro and Japanese yen, and lower sales volume. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset by
slightly favorable price realization. Sales declined for both new equipment and aftermarket parts. Sales declined in all
regions except North America. In EAME (Europe, Africa, Mid-East &
Commonwealth of Independent States), sales declined 11% primarily due
to lower end-user demand and unfavorable impact of currency, as CAT’s
sales in euros translated into fewer U.S. dollars, partially offset by
favorable impact of changes in dealer inventory. Asia/Pacific sales
declined 13%, primarily due to low end-user demand for construction
equipment and unfavorable impact of currency as sales in Japanese yen
translated into fewer U.S. dollars. Sales decreased 19% in Latin America,
primarily due to lower end-user demand for construction equipment. In
North America, sales increased 9%, primarily due to favorable impact of
changes in dealer inventory and higher end-user demand primarily for oil
and gas applications and construction equipment. Sales decreased in
Construction Industries and Resource Industries were about flat in Energy & Transport. Construction Industries’ sales
decreased 7%, primarily due to lower end-user demand. Resource Industries’ sales declined 9%, primarily due to lower
end-user demand in mining. Financial Products’ segment revenues were about flat.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Operating profit for first quarter 2015 was $1.527 billion, compared with $1.398 billion in 1Q2014. Improvement was
primarily due to lower restructuring costs, improved price realization and favorable impact of currency, partially offset by
lower volume and increased selling, general & administrative and research and development expenses. Impact of lower
sales volume was partially offset by a favorable mix of products. The favorable impact of currency was due to
strengthening of the U.S. dollar in relation to most currencies. Due to CAT’s sizable manufacturing presence outside of
the U.S., the stronger U.S. dollar resulted in a favorable impact to operating profit. About half of favorable currency
impact was due to the Japanese yen, as CAT is a net exporter from Japan. Manufacturing costs were about flat as
lower material costs were nearly offset by unfavorable impact of cost absorption, as inventory decreased in first quarter
2015, compared to an increase in first quarter 2014.
Energy & Transportation’s sales were $4.762 billion in first quarter 2015, or about flat with first quarter 2014. Impact of
higher sales volume and improved price realization were about offset by unfavorable impact of currency. Currency
negatively impacted sales in all applications, primarily in EAME. Sales decreases for industrial applications were about
offset by increases for transportation applications. Sales of power generation and oil and gas applications were about
flat. Transportation sales increased in Asia/Pacific due to a large locomotive project and were about flat in all other
regions of the world. Power generation sales were about flat in all regions. Oil and Gas sales were also about flat, as
increases in North America were about offset by declines in Latin America. In North America, sales increased primarily
due to higher end-user demand for equipment used in well servicing and gas compression applications. In Latin
America, sales were lower due to the absence of a large project. Energy & Transport’s profit was $986 million in first
quarter 2015, compared with $833 million in first quarter 2014. Improvement was primarily due to higher sales volume,
including a favorable mix of products, and improved price realization. Manufacturing costs were about flat, as lower
material costs were nearly offset by the unfavorable impact of cost absorption.
At the end of the first quarter of 2015, Caterpillar’s order backlog was $16.5 billion. This represents about a $0.8 billion
reduction from the end of 2014. The decrease was primarily in Construction Industries and Resource Industries. While
the backlog for Energy & Transportation was about flat, an increase in a backlog for locomotives was about offset by a
decrease in products used for oil and gas applications. Compared to the first quarter of 2014, the order backlog
declined about $2.8 billion. The decrease was primarily in Resource Industries and Energy & Transportation.
Overall, Caterpillar’s view of world economic growth in
2015 is about the same as the expected in the outlook
provided with their 2014 year-end financial release in
January of 2015. CAT expects world GDP growth in 2015
of about 2.7%, up from about 2.6% in 2014. We expect
that the improvement will come from developed countries
and that economies in developing countries will, overall,
grow at a rate slightly below their growth rate in 2014.
Despite outlook for modest improvement in global
economic growth versus 2014, significant risks and
uncertainties remain that could temper growth in 2015.
Political conflicts and social unrest continue to disrupt
economic activity in several regions; in particular, the
Commonwealth of Independent States, Africa and the
Mid-East. The Chinese government’s push for structural
reforms is slowing growth, and ongoing uncertainty
around direction and timing of U.S. fiscal and monetary
policy actions may temper business confidence.
The outlook for sales and revenues remains unchanged at about $50 billion for 2015, down from $55.2 billion in 2014.
The primary factors contributing to the decline from 2014 are largely the same as expected three months ago:
 Lower oil prices are expected to negatively impact sales of reciprocating engines within Energy & Transportation
and Construction Industries’ sales in oil-producing countries around the world, including regions of the United States
that rely on oil revenues to drive economic growth;
 The currency translation impact of a stronger U.S. dollar on sales outside the United States;
 Weaker mining sales;
 Lower sales in our rail business, primarily for locomotives; and
 Lower sales in China, primarily for construction equipment.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
The Economy and the Towing Industry
The global financial crisis of 2008 marked the latest turning point in global trade, and
although we sidestepped a global economic meltdown the financial crisis helped put a
damper on growth in global trade. 2015 is likely to mark the fourth consecutive year of
below-average trade growth, with at least one more year of disappointing growth to come,
according to the latest WTO predictions. Déjà vu - global growth remains moderate, with
uneven prospects across the main countries and regions. It is projected to be 3.5% in
2015, in line with forecasts in the January 2015 World Economic Outlook (WEO) Update.
Relative to last year, the outlook for advanced economies is improving, while growth in
emerging market and developing economies is projected to be lower, primarily reflecting
weaker prospects for some large emerging market economies and oil-exporting countries.
There was a time when “uneven prospects” across the globe were taken for granted and
most in “advanced” economies did not even pay attention. Today while what “happens in
Vegas” may still “stay in Vegas”, what happens pro or con in Greece, China, India,
Germany, Saudi Arabia does not necessarily stay there. It all has an effect one way or
another on global trade and the maritime industry. Global growth in 2014 was a modest 3.4%, reflecting a pickup in
growth in advanced economies relative to the previous year and a slowdown in emerging market and developing
economies. Despite the slowdown, emerging market and developing economies still accounted for three-fourths of
global growth in 2014. Overall, global growth is now projected to reach 3.5% and 3.8% in 2015 and 2016, respectively.
Growth is projected to be stronger in 2015 relative to 2014 in advanced economies, but weaker in emerging markets,
reflecting more subdued prospects for some large emerging market economies and oil exporters. Medium-term
prospects have become less optimistic for advanced economies, and especially for emerging markets, in which activity
has been slowing since 2010. At the same time, distribution of risks to global growth is more balanced, but still tilted to
the downside. A greater boost to demand from oil prices is an important upside risk, while on the downside, the most
salient risks identified in the October 2014 WEO remain relevant, including those related to geopolitical tensions,
disruptive asset price shifts in financial markets, and, in advanced economies, stagnation and low inflation.
According to the Jan. 2015 World Economic Outlook issued by the IMF, four key
developments shaped global outlook since release of the Oct. 2014 WEO. First, oil prices in
U.S. dollars declined by about 55% since September. The decline is partly due to unexpected
demand weakness in some major economies, in particular, emerging market economies—also
reflected in declines in industrial metal prices. But the much larger decline in oil prices
suggests an important contribution of oil supply factors, including decision of the OPEC to
maintain current production levels despite the steady rise in production from non-OPEC
producers, especially the U.S. Oil futures prices point to a partial recovery in oil prices in
coming years, consistent with the expected negative impact of lower oil prices on investment
and future capacity growth in the oil sector. Second, while global growth increased broadly as expected to 3¾% in third
quarter 2014, up from 3¼% the second quarter, this masked marked growth divergences among major economies.
Specifically, the recovery in the U.S. was stronger than expected, while economic performance in all other major
economies—most notably Japan—fell short. Weaker-than-expected growth in these economies is largely seen as
reflecting ongoing, protracted adjustment to diminished expectations regarding medium-term growth prospects. Third,
with more marked growth divergence across major economies, the U.S. dollar appreciated some 6% in real effective
terms relative to values used in the Oct. 2014 WEO. In contrast, the euro and the yen depreciated by about 2% and
8%, respectively, and many emerging market currencies weakened, particularly those of commodity exporters. Fourth,
interest rates and risk spreads have risen in many emerging market economies, notably commodity exporters, and risk
spreads on high-yield bonds and other products exposed to energy prices also widened. Long-term government bond
yields declined further in major advanced economies, reflecting safe haven effects and weaker activity in some, while
global equity indices in national currency remained broadly unchanged since October. Developments since release of
the October WEO have conflicting implications for growth forecasts. On the upside, the decline in oil prices driven by
supply factors—which, as noted, are expected to reverse only gradually and partially—will boost global growth over the
next two years or so by lifting purchasing power and private demand in oil importers. Impact is forecast to be stronger
in advanced economy oil importers, where the pass-through to end-user prices is expected to be higher than in
emerging market and developing oil importers. In the latter, more windfall gains from lower prices are assumed to
accrue to governments, i.e., in form of lower energy subsidies, where they may be used to shore up public finances.
However, the boost from lower oil prices is expected to be more than offset by adjustment to lower medium-term
growth in most major economies other than the U.S. At 3.5 and 3.7%, respectively, global growth projections for 2015–
16 have been marked down by 0.3% relative to the Oct. 2014 WEO.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
According to the OECD, total merchandise imports in the G7 and BRIICS fell by 3.7% in the 4th
quarter of 2014, compared with the previous quarter, partly reflecting a continued fall in oil
prices. Merchandise exports also fell (by 3.0%) in US dollar terms, but this partly reflects the
effects of an appreciating US dollar. When measured in local currencies, exports grew in most
major economies. In major euro area economies, both exports and imports fell strongly in the
fourth quarter when measured in USD. When measured in euros, exports grew by 3.5% in
France, 1.9% in Italy and 0.9% in Germany. Imports declined by 8.0%, 5.9% and 6.0%,
respectively when measured in USD. Imports also fell in the United Kingdom (by 4.6%) while
exports in USD and Sterling rose (by 1.2%. and 6.7% respectively). Exports and imports fell in Canada (by 4.9% and
3.1% respectively) and Japan (3.8% and 6.4%), when measured in USD but Japanese exports rose by 5.8% in Yen. In
the United States imports remained stable compared to the previous quarter, although exports contracted by 1.2%.
Among the BRIICS countries, Brazil experienced a significant fall in exports, measured in USD, in Q4 (by16.0%) and
imports (by 8.3%), partly reflecting a collapse of key exports (iron ore and soybeans), resulting in Brazil’s largest trade
deficit on record. Exports from Russia declined sharply (by 13.6%), reflecting a combination of EU sanctions and lower
oil prices, while Russian imports dropped significantly (by 10.7%) due to a combination of factors, in particular
reciprocal import measures and the collapse of the Ruble. Exports grew slightly in China (by 0.4%) while imports fell
(2.0%).Trade slowed sharply in Q4 in India with exports and imports down by 3.9% and 4.7% respectively. Year on
year, trade in US dollars in G7 and BRIICS countries combined grew modestly by 1.9% (exports) and 0.5% (imports). In
Germany and the United States, exports increased (by 4.0% and 2.8%), with imports up (by 2.2% and 3.4%,
respectively). Japan recorded a trade deficit for the 4th consecutive year with exports and imports down by 3.5% and
2.5%. Among BRIICS countries, China’s exports and imports grew by 5.3% and 0.6% respectively. Brazil recorded its
first trade deficit since 2000 with exports and imports down 6.9% and 3.8% respectively. Despite the strong contraction
in exports Russia’s trade surplus increased marginally in 2014, as imports fell at a faster pace.
Growth in the volume of world merchandise trade will pick up only slightly over the next two years,
rising from 2.8% in 2014 to 3.3% in 2015 and eventually to 4.0% in 2016, WTO economists
announced recently. Trade expansion will therefore remain well below the annual average of 5.1%
posted since 1990. The modest gains in 2014, marked the third consecutive year in which trade
grew less than 3%. Trade growth averaged just 2.4% between 2012 and 2014, the slowest rate on
record for a three year period when trade was expanding (i.e. excluding years like 1975 and 2009
when world trade actually declined). Director-General Roberto Azevêdo said: “Trade growth has been disappointing in
recent years, due largely to prolonged sluggish growth in GDP following the financial crisis. Looking forward we expect
trade to continue its slow recovery but with economic growth still fragile and continued geopolitical tensions, this trend
could easily be undermined. But we are not powerless in the face of this gloomy picture. Trade can be a powerful policy
tool to leverage economic growth and development. By withdrawing protectionist
measures, improving market access, avoiding policies which distort competition and
striving to agree reforms to global trade rules, governments can boost trade and seize
the opportunities that it offers for everyone.” In the short-term at least, trade expansion
will no longer far outstrip overall economic growth as had been the general pattern for
decades. The 2.8% rise in world trade in 2014 barely exceeded the increase in world
GDP for the year, and forecasts for trade growth in 2015 and 2016 only surpass
expected output growth by a small margin. Several factors contributed to the
sluggishness of trade and output in 2014 and at the start of 2015, including slowing
GDP growth in emerging economies, an uneven recovery in developed countries, and
rising geopolitical tensions, among others. Strong exchange rate fluctuations, including
a 14% appreciation of the US dollar against other currencies between July and March,
have further complicated the trade situation and outlook. Collapsing world oil prices in
2014 (down 47% between 15 July and 31 December) and weakness in other
commodity classes hit export receipts and reduced import demand in exporting
countries, but also boosted real incomes and imports in importing countries. Prices
have continued to fall since then, suggesting excess supply, insufficient demand, or
both. Whether this turns out to be a positive or a negative development on balance for
world trade in 2015 remains to be seen. The preliminary estimate of 2.8% for world
trade growth in 2014 refers to the average of merchandise exports and imports in
volume terms, i.e. adjusted to account for differences in inflation and exchange rates
across countries. This figure is close to WTO’s most recent forecast of 3.1% from last
September but below the 4.7% rise predicted at this time last year. A number of factors
contributed to their initial overestimate, most of which could not have been anticipated.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 295,000 in February, and the unemployment
rate edged down to 5.5%, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported. Job gains occurred
in food services and drinking places, professional and business services, construction, health
care, and in transportation and warehousing. Employment in mining was down over the
month. Both the unemployment rate (5.5%) and the number of unemployed persons (8.7
million) edged down in February. Over the year, the unemployment rate and the number of
unemployed persons were down by 1.2 percentage points and 1.7 million, respectively.
Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rate for teenagers decreased by 1.7
percentage points to 17.1% in February. The jobless rates for adult men (5.2%), adult women
(4.9%), whites (4.7%), blacks (10.4%), Asians (4.0%), and Hispanics (6.6%) showed little or no change. The number of
long-term unemployed (those jobless for 27 weeks or more) was little changed at 2.7 million in February. These
individuals accounted for 31.1% of the unemployed. Over the past 12 months, the number of long-term unemployed is
down by 1.1 million. The civilian labor force participation rate, at 62.8%, changed little in February and has remained
within a narrow range of 62.7 to 62.9% since April 2014. The employment-population ratio was unchanged at 59.3% in
February but is up by 0.5 percentage point over the year. The number of persons employed part time for economic
reasons (sometimes referred to as involuntary part-time workers) was little changed in February at 6.6 million. These
individuals, who would have preferred full-time employment, were working part time because their hours had been cut
back or because they were unable to find a full-time job. In
February, 2.2 million persons were marginally attached to the labor
force, little changed from a year earlier. (The data is not seasonally
adjusted.) These individuals were not in the labor force, wanted
and were available for work, and had looked for a job sometime in
the prior 12 months. They were not counted as unemployed
because they had not searched for work in the four weeks
preceding the survey. Among the marginally attached, there were
732,000 discouraged workers in February, little different from a
year earlier. (The data is not seasonally adjusted.) Discouraged
workers are persons not currently looking for work because they
believe no jobs are available for them. The remaining 1.4 million
persons marginally attached to the labor force in February had not
searched for work for reasons such as school attendance or family
responsibilities.
The euro area (EA19) seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate was 11.3% in February 2015, down from 11.4% in
January 2015, and from 11.8% in February 2014. This is the lowest rate recorded in the euro area since May 2012. The
EU28 unemployment rate was 9.8% in February 2015, down from 9.9% in January 2015 and from 10.5% in February
2014. This is the lowest rate recorded in the EU28 since September 2011. These figures are published by Eurostat,
the statistical office of the European Union. Eurostat estimates that 23.887 million men and women in the EU28, of
whom 18.204 million in the euro area, were unemployed in February 2015. Compared with January 2015, the number
of persons unemployed decreased by 91,000 in the EU28 and by 49,000 in the euro area. Compared with February
2014, unemployment fell by 1.547 million in the EU28 and by 643,000 in the euro area. Among the Member States, the
lowest unemployment rates in February 2015 were recorded in Germany (4.8%) and Austria (5.3%), and the highest in
Greece (26.0% in December 2014) and Spain (23.2%). Compared with a year ago, the unemployment rate in February
2015 fell in twenty-two Member States
and increased in six Member States. The
largest decreases were registered in
Estonia (8.4% to 6.2% between January
2014 and January 2015), Ireland (12.1%
to 9.9%) and Bulgaria (12.3% to 10.2%).
The largest increases were registered in
Croatia (17.3% to 18.5%), Cyprus (15.6%
to 16.3%) and Finland (8.4% to 9.1%). In
February 2015, the unemployment rate in
the United States was 5.5%, down from
5.7% in January 2015 and down from
6.7% in February 2014.

“Statistics Brief on Global Trade and Transport”, the overall picture for global
freight improves since the previous brief in November 2014. Air freight,
considered a lead indicator for overall economic performance, indicates a
potential improvement of the near-term outlook both for the EU-28 and the
United States. Total external trade by air, in tonnes of good transported,
recovers to 2% above pre-crisis peak for the first time since the second
quarter of 2012, according to the seasonally adjusted preliminary data. Total
external trade by sea grows both in the EU-28 and the United States,
recovering to pre-crisis levels (-1%) in the former, measured in tonnes of
good carried. Exports and imports continue to display diverging trends. Total
exports transported by sea reach 28% and 22% above pre-crisis peak in the EU-28 and the United States respectively
while imports stagnate below pre-crisis levels (EU -9%; USA -26%). Exports to BRICS and Asia have been the
locomotive of European and North American growth since the crisis of 2008. Exports by sea from the EU-28 to BRICS
and Asia remain at their above pre-crisis levels (43% and 42% above pre-crisis peak). USA exports to BRICS shows
also growth, reaching 69% above pre-crisis levels. The relatively strong performance of the US economy is reflected in
the road and rail freight with Mexico and Canada, measured in value, as it continues to grow strongly since the recovery
started in 2010. Growth in trade with Mexico may also be affected by “nearshoring” of economic activities. Freight
transported by road and rail in the EU remain below pre-crisis levels, if measured in tonne-kilometers of goods moved,
reflecting continuous weak domestic demand. Rail freight volume in China shows increasing pace of slowdown and
declined to 6% above pre-crisis levels, possibly suggesting weakening of the growth.
Based on preliminary data, the volume of world trade fell 0.9% in
February from the previous month, following a revised 1.6% decline in
January (initial estimate: -1.4%). While regional outcomes were
mixed, import volume on the whole declined on account of a contraction in advanced economies, most notably the
United States. There were near-equal and widespread declines in export volume in advanced economies and emerging
economies, the Euro Area and Latin America being the only country blocks where export volume was up. Export growth
in Japan plummeted. Because of the volatility of monthly trade figures, momentum is the preferred measure of trade
growth.1 Trade momentum was -0.6% in February (non-annualized), down from 0.5% in January and the first negative
reading since April last year. Import and export momentum receded in both advanced economies and emerging
economies. Export momentum turned negative in advanced economies. Import momentum became more (and heavily)
negative in emerging economies. According to preliminary data, world industrial production grew 0.2% in February,
following a 0.3% decrease in January (unchanged from the initial estimate). Production growth was zero in advanced
economies, while there was a positive turnaround in emerging economies. Growth was up strongly in the Euro Area,
but fell sharply in Japan. Growth was up in all major emerging country blocks, marked positive turnarounds occurring in
Asia and Central and Eastern Europe. Global production momentum was 0.6% in February (non-annualized), down
from 0.9% in January. (The longer-term average is 0.7% per three months.) A similar decline occurred in advanced and
emerging economies. In fact, momentum decreased in each major country block but the Euro Area.
With total throughput of 145.7 million tons, representing growth of 4.8%, the Port of
Hamburg achieved its best-ever result in 2014. Up by 6.1% at 102.7 million tons,
general cargo throughput was outstanding. A 1.7% increase in bulk cargo throughput
to 43.0 million tons also contributed to the new record for Germany’s largest universal
port. In 2014 the Port of Hamburg set a new record for seaborne cargo handling. Never
before had such cargo volumes been loaded and discharged in the Port of Hamburg.
“This year of throughput records was possible because port customers and shipowners
rely on Hamburg and value our port’s high quality performance. Along with its excellent
liner services and links with markets in Germany and abroad, the outstanding level of performance by the port and its
many providers of cargo handling, logistics and transport services continue to prove convincing for its many customers.
Internationally, Hamburg belongs in the Champions League of world ports, achieving above-average growth compared
to its European competitors,” emphasized Axel Mattern of Port of Hamburg Marketing (HHM)’s Executive Board in
presenting the port’s results. "I am very pleased with the annual result. It shows how important it is to develop and
implement intelligent solutions for the port. With our smartPORT strategy, we are set on precisely the right course for
the future of the Port of Hamburg," says Jens Meier, CEO of Hamburg Port Authority.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
The container and cruise sectors set new records at leading French port
Marseille Fos in 2014 in a year when total cargo throughput slipped to 78.45
million tonnes – down 2% on 2013 – due to an ongoing decline in oil volumes
stemming from the restructuring of Europe’s refinery industry. Box traffic rose
7% to 1,174,000 TEU, beating the previous record of 1,097,740 TEU in 2013.
Some 90% of the trade went through the two deepsea Fos 2XL terminals, where volumes rose 10% in contrast to a 5%
fall in the largely shortsea throughput handled in Marseille. Container tonnage was up 5% to 11.27MT, leading general
cargo to a 3% increase on 17.74MT – the port’s biggest area of growth last year. Steel products saw conventional
trades improve 6% to 2.77MT, but ro-ro cargo was down 5% on 3.7MT following industrial disputes at financiallytroubled ferry operator SNCM. Dry bulks increased 2% for 13.45MT, driven by a 6% rise to 9.7MT in imports of steel
industry raw materials. Agro-bulks were stable on 0.95MT, but other bulks fell 8% to 2.79MT. Liquid bulks gained 8%
on 3.7MT, dominated by a 7% rise in petrochemicals to 3.63MT. Oil and gas volumes fell 5% to 43.56MT in a trend that
has seen volumes down by more than 15MT since 2011. Crude imports for domestic refineries were 8% lower on
22.47MT and crude for pipeline supply to Germany and Switzerland dipped 4% to 2.6MT. Refined products contributed
28% of the sector’s volumes after rising 8% to 12.04MT. LPG was down 6% on 2MT, while LNG slumped 22%
to4.43MT against strong price competition from Russia – although shipments began to recover later in the year as the
differential narrowed. Passenger throughput was marked by a 12% surge in cruise numbers to 1.3 million – up by
136,300 on the previous record set in 2013 – from a total of 493 calls. However, overall passenger volumes fell 6% to
2.46 million after Corsica and North Africa ferry carryings finished 20% down on 1.16 million. The Corsica total of
680,000 passengers represented a 30% drop. The Medlink Ports partnership of Marseille Fos, Sete and nine RhoneSaone river ports have strengthened their cooperation with inland waterways authority Voies Navigables de France and
the Compagnie Nationale du Rhone by forming the Medlink Ports Development Agency to further promote modal shift
from saturated road links. The new association aims to widen the partnership to shippers, hauliers, suppliers and
professional bodies through four key objectives – enhancing the river logistics chain by sharing best port practices;
establishing Medlink Ports as an internationally recognised brand offering multimodal solutions; winning new traffic by
providing a free advisory service to shippers; and working closely with State and regional authorities to develop a public
policy favouring waterways and intermodal options. Last year Medlink Ports traffic totalled 8.5 million tonnes, including
container volumes of 91,500 TEU.
DP World Limited 60 million TEU (twenty-foot equivalent units) across its global portfolio of
container terminals during 2014, with gross container volumes growing by 8.9% on reported
basis and 8.0% on a like-for-like basis. New volume at London Gateway (UK) and Embraport
(Brazil) contributed to the increase in reported volumes. Growth in 2014 was largely driven by
the Asia Pacific and India Subcontinent region, Europe and UAE terminals. The UAE delivered
an impressive performance handling 15.2 million TEU, representing growth of 11.8% for the
year. Europe showed a solid return to volume growth in 2014. At a consolidated level, its
terminals handled 28.3 million TEU during 2014, a 9.5% improvement in like-for-like
performance. On a reported level, the growth rate of 8.7% in consolidated volumes reflects the deconsolidation of Hong
Kong assets in June last year.
Chairman Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem commented: “With volume growth of 8.9% in 2014 we believe we have once
again outperformed the expected 2014 market growth of approximately 5%. This demonstrates that a portfolio focused
on origin and destination cargo and faster growing markets continues to be the right strategy to follow. Our new
developments at London Gateway and Embraport contributed to our excellent 2014 performance. Our flagship Jebel Ali
port continues to reach record highs with 15.2 million TEU handled in 2014. The opening of an additional 2 million TEU
capacity in the third quarter of 2014 has alleviated constraint and will provide the capacity we need to achieve further
volume growth at Jebel Ali. A further 2 million TEU is expected to come on line in the second half of this year taking
total Jebel Ali capacity to 19 million TEU. Given the strong volume performance in 2014, we expect to meet full year
market expectations. As we look ahead into 2015 we have a number of exciting developments, including new capacity
coming on stream in The Netherlands, Turkey, India and The United Arab Emirates, the development of a logistics hub
in Belgium and further integrated ports and logistics solutions for our customers with the completion of our JAFZA
acquisition. Although some of our terminals continue to operate in a challenging macro environment, market conditions
across the portfolio are expected to be generally favorable in 2015. This coupled with the addition of new capacity,
stands us in good stead for volume growth in line or slightly ahead of the market this year.”

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
The total number of containers handled year-to-date
through the Port of Hong Kong by the end of February
was 3,265,000TEU, down 4.75% compared to 3,428,000 in
the same 2014 time period. Total seaborne cargo
discharged / loaded during the two months of 2015 was
31,415,000 tons (-0.3%), while the total river cargo
throughput was up 15.4%. River cargo refers to cargo transported by vessels
plying exclusively within the river trade limits. The river trade limits mean the
waters in the vicinity of Hong Kong which broadly include the Pearl River, Mirs
Bay and Macao, and other inland waterways in Guangdong and Guangxi which
are accessible from waters in the vicinity of Hong Kong.
The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey reported a total of 445,285
TEU handled in February, up 14.8% over the same period in 2014 following
a 7.9% in January. Total rail lifts were up 18.0%.……Container statistics
show a 10.2% decline in the total number of containers handled at the Port
of Los Angeles in February 2015 following a 22.8% decline in January
compared to the prior year periods. In 2014, the port handled a total of 8.3
million TEUs compared to 7.9 million in 2013, but still below the records of
8.5 million and 8.4 million in 2006 and
2007 respectively.…. Nearby Port of
Long Beach reported a total of
413,114TEU handled in the first two months of 2015, down 20.1% from the
517,173TEU in 2014. Total metric revenue tons were down 17.5%…… Container
volumes through the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma continued to struggle in
February, dipping 9% year to date. Through February, Washington state’s two
largest ports handled 457,620 TEUs. Containerized imports fell nearly 16% year
to date to 181,864 TEUs, while exports were down 8% to 159,124 TEUs.
Domestic volumes to Alaska and Hawaii
grew 1% to 116,623 TEUs. Cargo
volumes were affected by the prolonged contract negotiations between the
International Longshore and Warehouse Union and Pacific Maritime
st
Association. Normal operations resumed at Seattle and Tacoma terminals 21
February when the two parties reached a tentative agreement. The ports are working to quickly clear the backlog of
cargo and ships that built up during the nine months of contract negotiations. In other cargo news, grain exports grew
13% to 1.7 million metric tons and breakbulk volumes improved 11% to 42,972 metric tons. Year-to-date petroleum
cargoes were up 41.4% in February compared to 2014, while total vessel calls were down 13.5% from 356 to 308 since
January…. North of the border, 2014 year-end statistics at Port Metro Vancouver in Canada showed a second
consecutive year of record-breaking volumes. The port’s terminals handled 140 million tonnes of cargo in 2014, up 3%
from 2013. Import cargo rose 4.1% to 29 million tonnes, and exports rose 3.3% to
111 million tonnes. Substantial completion of major infrastructure programs and
projects, significant accomplishments in environmental initiatives, and ongoing
community engagement were key to managing this growth and striking an
appropriate balance between economic development and community interests.
“The port had another record year for cargo volumes, illustrating the demands created by a growing Canadian economy
and increasing international desire for Canadian trade,” said Robin Silvester, President and CEO. “I’m proud of the
leading-edge environmental initiatives, community engagement and infrastructure projects we have completed this year
to help balance this continued growth with our local quality of life.” Bulk volumes increased by 5.3% over 2013, with
substantial increases in grain exports after a bumper crop year and strong international demand spurred an 18%
increase in exports of wheat and 31% increase for canola. Bulk coal volumes remained strong as volumes increased in
several emerging markets from more traditional markets. Container volumes continued to grow, with a 3.1% increase
over 2013, despite reduced volumes in the month of March due to a container trucking disruption. “Every year, millions
of tonnes of cargo are handled at Port Metro Vancouver. As we further develop our already robust trade ties with the
world, this number will only go up,” said the Honorable Lisa Raitt, Minister of Transport. “The record volume of goods
that move through the port every year is testament to Canada’s strong economic growth, and demonstrates Canada’s
important role as a vital trading partner to the rest of the world.” Port Metro Vancouver is Canada’s largest gateway,
handling 19% of the value of Canada’s total trade in goods.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
According to the U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s 04 March 2015
“Beige Book of Current Economic Conditions”, reports from the
twelve Federal Reserve Districts indicated that economic activity
continued to expand across most regions and sectors from early
January through mid-February. Six Districts noted that the local
economy expanded at a moderate pace since the prior reporting
period. Activity rose modestly in Philadelphia and Cleveland, while it increased slightly in Kansas City. Dallas noted a
similar pace of growth as in the previous period, while Richmond reported that activity slowed from the modest pace
seen in the prior period. Boston noted that business contacts were fairly upbeat this period, notwithstanding the severe
weather. Consumer spending rose in most Districts, and contacts were generally optimistic about near-term sales.
Manufacturing generally posted gains across the Districts, although at varying rates. The demand for nonfinancial
services also grew moderately on balance. Home sales increased in most Districts, while reports on residential
construction were mixed. Commercial real estate market conditions remained stable or improved across the Districts.
Banking conditions generally improved, and credit quality remained largely unchanged. Agricultural conditions generally
worsened, and oil and natural gas drilling declined. Payrolls remained stable or expanded across the Districts, and
contacts noted employment gains in a broad range of sectors. Wage pressures remained
moderate and were limited largely to workers in skilled occupations. Most District contacts
cited only flat to slightly increasing prices. Manufacturing generally increased since the
previous survey, although the rate of growth varied across the Districts and sectors. The
Atlanta District noted that manufacturing rebounded during the current reporting period
following a modest slowdown in December. According to contacts in the Chicago and San
Francisco manufacturing rose moderately, while contacts in New York noted modest gains.
Contacts in Kansas City indicated slow growth, contacts in Philadelphia reported slight
increases, and contacts in Dallas noted flat to positive growth. Reports from factory contacts
in Cleveland District were mixed, while contacts in Richmond noted that activity weakened.
Manufacturers had generally positive outlooks going forward. Firms in Atlanta expect
production levels to increase over the next three to six months, some firms in Chicago
expect steady growth in shipments for 2015. Manufacturers in Boston, Cleveland, and
Richmond reported positive outlooks. In contrast, New York District contacts have grown less optimistic about the nearterm outlook. Agricultural conditions worsened since the previous report across the Districts due to weak farm income,
persistent drought, and declining exports. Prices for corn and soybeans fell over the reporting period in the Chicago,
Kansas City, and Dallas Districts. A majority of contacts in the Minneapolis and Kansas City Districts noted that farm
incomes had fallen from year-earlier levels. Kansas City noted that farmland values had leveled off after recent gains
while ranchland values continued to rise due to strong demand. Input prices for the upcoming spring planting season
were reported as stable in the Richmond and Chicago Districts. Contacts in the Dallas and San Francisco Districts
noted that a stronger dollar was hurting agricultural exports. Furthermore, the Chicago and San Francisco Districts
noted that labor disputes at ports along the West Coast have also had a negative impact on exports. Drought
conditions improved but still persisted in some areas of the Atlanta and Dallas Districts, while drought conditions in the
San Francisco District hurt yields and didn't show immediate signs of improvement. Oil and natural gas drilling
declined in the Cleveland, Minneapolis, Kansas City, and Dallas Districts. In contrast, the Richmond District reported
that natural gas production was unchanged. The number of drilling rigs for oil and natural gas declined sharply in the
Cleveland, Minneapolis, and Kansas City Districts. Oil and gas producers in the Cleveland, Kansas City, and Dallas
Districts anticipate cuts in capital expenditures during 2015. Coal production was unchanged in both the Cleveland and
Richmond Districts, while it increased modestly in the St. Louis District. Both the Cleveland and Richmond Districts
reported lower coal prices.
The U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, through the
Department of Commerce, reported that the goods and services deficit was $35.4
billion in February, down $7.2 billion from $42.7 billion in January, revised. February
exports were $186.2 billion, $3.0 billion less than January exports. February imports
were $221.7 billion, $10.2 billion less than January imports. The February decrease
in the goods and services deficit reflected a decrease in the goods deficit of $7.4
billion to $55.2 billion and a decrease in the services surplus of $0.1 billion to $19.7 billion. Year-to-date, the goods
and services deficit decreased $2.6 billion, or 3.2%, from the same period in 2014. Exports decreased $5.3 billion or
1.4%. Imports decreased $7.9 billion or 1.7%.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
The Freight Transportation Services Index (TSI), which is based on the amount of freight carried by the for-hire
transportation industry, 1.7% in February from January, falling after a minimal rise in January, according to the U.S.
Department of Transportation’s Bureau of Transportation Statistics’ (BTS). The February 2015 index level (120.4)
was 27.3% above the April 2009 low during the most recent recession. The level of freight shipments in February
measured by the Freight TSI (120.4) was 2.4% below the all-time high level of 123.3 in November 2014. BTS’ TSI
records begin in 2000. The January index was revised to 122.6
from 122.9 in last month’s release. Numbers for September,
November and December were also revised down. The Freight TSI
measures the month-to-month changes in freight shipments by
mode of transportation in tons and ton-miles, which are combined
into one index. The index measures the output of the for-hire
freight transportation industry and consists of data from for-hire
trucking, rail, inland waterways, pipelines and air freight. A large
decline in rail carloads, rail intermodal, coupled with smaller
declines in trucking and water resulted in the decline in the overall
freight index in February, despite an increase in pipeline. Unusual
winter weather played a role in much of this decline in
transportation related economic activity. Transportation may also
have been impacted by labor issues at West Coast ports. The Freight TSI declined in February, the second decline in
three months, following three months of growth. It was down 2.4% from its all-time high in November. The February
index was lower than at any time since June 2014. After dipping to 94.6 in April 2009, the index rose 27.3% in the
succeeding 70 months. Freight shipments in February 2015 (120.4) were 27.3% higher than the recent low in April
2009 during the recession (94.6). The February 2015 level was 2.4% below the historic peak reached in November
2014 (123.3). Freight shipments measured by the index were down 1.7% in February compared to the end of 2014.
Freight shipments are up 14.5% in the five years from the post-recession level of February 2010 and are up 6.5% in the
10 years from February 2005. February 2015 freight shipments were up 2.5% from February 2014.
Cass information Systems “Freight Index Report” indicates that North American freight volumes jumped up in
February, while total freight expenditures reversed a three-month slump. The problems caused by labor negotiations on
the U.S. West Coast have contributed to an economic slowdown for most of the first quarter. The two sides in the
ILWU contract negotiations have come to terms, but not yet ratified them, which will open the floodgates to moving the
backlogged freight. The Port of Los Angeles estimates that it will take three months to return to normal. Meanwhile
congestion and capacity will be the industry’s buzzwords. The
number of shipments increased 5.5% in February and is 0.9% higher
than the same month a year ago. February’s frigid temperatures and
snow that covered much of the country led to increased shipments of
heating oil, coal and sand. In addition the railroads have reported
increases in grain shipments for the last two months. The American
Trucking Associations reported that truck tonnage rose 1.2% in
January (the latest month available). The containers backed up in the
West have impacted rail intermodal traffic which was down 7.6% in
February. East Coast ports have been reporting record January
container loadings, but there has not been a significant shift to other
ports. Since the contract dispute has been settled, shipment volume
will pick up significantly in March and April. Union Pacific and
Burlington Northern have already reported on the negative affect the
strike is having on their bottom lines and have expressed concerns
about the system’s ability to handle the demand that is expected when freight shipments resume. Freight expenditures
were up 4.3% after declining for three months, and were up 0.6% over February 2014. Widespread rate increases have
not yet taken hold and spot rates have been flat or down throughout the month, so the increase in freight expenditures
is largely due to the increase in freight shipments. Expect rates to rise in March as both rail and truckers deal with the
herculean task of transporting the goods from the West Coast. The slow start to 2015 should not be viewed as a
concern. In 2014, the weather caused a disruption similar to the West Coast port problems, but once those were
resolved the economy began to heat up. The recently settled ILWU contract came after a prolonged nine-month series
of slowdowns and port closures, causing a freight gridlock. The conflict will cost retailers as much as US$ 7 billion in
increased carrying costs and lost sales. Much of the undelivered freight will be discounted immediately upon receipt
because it is no longer in season, which will count to mounting inventories. New orders and production are still strong,
as is consumer confidence, so we should expect this slowdown to be a temporary blip.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
According to the Association of American Railroads (AAR)’s Weekly Rail Traffic report issued on
th
March 11 , for the first nine weeks of 2015, U.S. railroads reported cumulative volume of 2,518,673
carloads, up 1.8% from the same point last year; and 2,188,224 intermodal units, down 2.1% from last
year. Total combined U.S. traffic for the
first nine weeks of 2015 was 4,706,897
carloads and intermodal units, with no
percentage increase compared to last year.
North American rail volume for the first nine weeks of 2015
was 6,154,243 carloads and intermodal units, up 1.8
percent compared with 2014. For the first nine weeks of
2015, Canadian railroads reported cumulative rail traffic
volume of 1,207,152 carloads, intermodal containers and
trailers, up 9.1%. Mexican railroads reported 15,977
carloads for the week, up 10.8% compared with the same
week last year, and 10,683 intermodal units, up 19.6%.
Cumulative volume on Mexican railroads for the first nine
weeks of 2015 was 240,194 carloads and intermodal
containers and trailers, up 3.5% from the same point last year.
American Trucking Associations’ advanced seasonally adjusted For-Hire Truck Tonnage Index
decreased 3.1% in February, following a revised gain of 1.3% during the previous month. In February,
the index equaled 131.6 (2000=100), the lowest level since September 2014. Compared with
February 2014, the SA index increased 3%, although this was the smallest year-over-year gain since
June of last year and below the 2014 annual increase of 3.7%. The not seasonally adjusted index,
which represents the change in tonnage actually hauled by the fleets before any seasonal adjustment, equaled 118.9 in
February which was 6.4% below the previous month (127.0). “The February drop in truck tonnage was not a surprise,”
said ATA Chief Economist Bob Costello. “Retail sales, manufacturing output and housing starts were all off during the
month, so the tonnage decline fits with those indicators. The surprise would have been had tonnage increased with all
of those sectors falling.” Costello added that the winter weather that impacted a large portion of the country during
February had a negative impact on truck tonnage as well as
industries that drive tonnage, like retail, manufacturing and housing
starts. Trucking serves as a barometer of the U.S. economy,
representing 69.1% of tonnage carried by all modes of domestic
freight transportation, including manufactured and retail goods.
Trucks hauled 9.7 billion tons of freight in 2013. Motor carriers
collected $681.7 billion, or 81.2% of total revenue earned by all
transport modes. ATA calculates the tonnage index based on surveys
from its membership and has been doing so since the 1970s. This is
a preliminary figure and subject to change in the final report issued
around the 10th day of the month. The report includes month-tomonth and year-over-year results, relevant economic comparisons
and key financial indicators.
According to the Lake Carriers’ Association, cargo movement in U.S.-flag Great Lakes freighters
(lakers) in March fell to its lowest level since 2009. Shipments totaled only 825,000 tons, a decrease
of more than 60% compared to the month’s 5-year average. Another brutal winter, coupled with a
number of casualties to U.S. and Canadian icebreakers, slowed the resumption of navigation. A
number of vessels delayed their fit-out because of the heavy ice. Only 26 U.S.-flag lakers were in
service on April 1. In some years, nearly 50 hulls are underway by that date. Iron ore felt the brunt of
the delays. Loadings totaled just 535,000 tons, a decrease of 66% compared to the month’s 5-year average. This is the
second year in a row a harsh winter has stalled the new shipping season. Lake Carriers’ Association has called on the
U.S. government to build another heavy icebreaker to pair with the “Mackinaw” and assign another 140-foot-long
icebreaking tug to the Lakes while the 140s already stationed here are rotated to the Coast Guard yard in Baltimore for
service life extension. Lake Carriers’ Association represents 16 American companies that operate 56 U.S.-flag vessels
on the Great Lakes and carry the raw materials that drive the nation’s economy: iron ore and fluxstone for the steel
industry, aggregate and cement for the construction industry, coal for power generation, as well as salt, sand and grain.
Collectively, these vessels can transport more than 115 million tons of cargo per year.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
Under U.S. law, vessel operators must report domestic
waterborne commercial movements to the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers. February’s 44.0 million short tons of commodities
carried on internal U.S. Waterways was down 14.89% from
November’s 51.7 million tons and was higher than February
2014’s tonnage of 32.5 million tons. February 2015 is the
highest February movement since the 43.8 million recorded in
February 1998. A new model was introduced recently resulting
in the separation of petroleum and chemical indicators. In
February, 13.4 million tons of petroleum were carried, down
6.94% from November’s 14.4 million but up 4.69% from
February 2014’s 12.8 million tons. Chemicals moved in February
were 3.8 million, less by 11.63% than November’s 4.3 million
and higher 5.56% than February 2014’s 3.6 million tons. 11.0
million tons of Coal & Coke were hauled, 11.29% lower than November’s 12.4 million tons and .90% lower than
February 2014’s 11.1 million tons. 6.60 million tons of Farm and Food Products shipments were higher than
November’s 8.3 million tons and significantly higher than February 2014’s 1.87 million tons.
Bunker Prices Worldwide
With the exception of Fujairah, all areas tracked reported a
sharp increase in prices in February, proving that rebounds
happen as we have all seen repeatedly. Fujairah, historically
less volatile than other areas reported, decreased 6.93% to
February’s average US$ 772.50/mt from January’s average
US$ 830.00/mt. This is the lowest monthly average for
Fujairah since December 2010. In the U.S., Houston
increased 8.37% to US$ 647.50/mt from US$ 597.50/mt.
Rotterdam increased 17.40% to US$ 550.00/mt from US$
468.50/mt and Singapore rose 12.21% to US$ 560.50/mt
from US$ 499.50/mt.
In the United States, Kirby Corporation’s average 247
towboats operating with their 884 inland tank barges on inland
waterways of the U.S. average cost per gallon for fuel
consumed during fourth quarter 2014 was US$ 2.83 per U.S.
gallon compared to US$ 3.10/gallon for third quarter 2014 and
US$ 3.26/gallon during the comparable fourth quarter of 2013. During that period of time their inland tank barge
utilization remained in the 90 – 95% range. Pricing on renewing contracts experienced only modest increases and were
under pressure late in the fourth quarter. In addition, high winds and heavy fog during the quarter drove a year over
year increase in delay days in the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. Operating conditions throughout the Mississippi River
system were seasonally normal.
The end of January saw a modest increase in fuel prices on the U.S. West
Coast. February saw a 25-27% increase, which many believe was in
reaction to ExxonMobil’s Torrance, California refinery outage after an
th
explosion and fire on February 18 . OPIS contract average weekly prices of
th
ultra-low sulphur diesel for the week ending 27 February compared to the
th
week ending 30 January increased in all areas reported, starting with
Seattle’s increase of 25.55% to US$ 2.16 per U.S. gallon from $ 1.72/gal.
Fuel in Portland, Oregon was at $ 2.19/gal ($ 1.76/gal), a 24.02% increase.
Diesel in San Francisco rose 27.09% to $ 2.29/gal from the $ 1.80/gal
average paid the end of January and Los Angeles / Long Beach / El
Segundo increased 25.62% to $ 2.16/gal from $ 1.72/gal over the same
time period. In the week ending March 6th, fuel prices dipped in all areas
when the week’s averages ranged from a low of $ 2.13/gal in Los Angeles /
Long Beach / El Segundo to a high of $ 2.26 in San Francisco.

Tug Boat Market Report – February 2015
According to the Paris-based, International
Energy Agency’s “Oil Market Report”, crude oil
prices stabilized following early-February gains,
with ICE Brent rising more than NYMEX WTI
which was weighed down by swelling US
stockpiles. At the time of writing, Brent was trading
at around $58/bbl - up nearly 30% from a six-year
low in January. WTI was at around $48/bbl. Having
bottomed-out in 2Q14, global oil demand growth
has since steadily risen, with year-on-year gains
estimated at around 0.9 mb/d for 4Q14 and 1.0
mb/d for 1Q15. The forecast of demand growth for
2015 as a whole has been raised by 75 kb/d to 1.0
mb/d, bringing global demand to an average 93.5
mb/d. Global supply rose by 1.3 mb/d year-on-year
to an estimated 94 mb/d in February, led by a 1.4
mb/d gain in non-OPEC. Declines in the US rig
count have yet to dent North American output
growth. Final December and preliminary 1Q15 data show higher-than-expected US crude supply, raising the 2015
North American outlook. OPEC crude output edged down by 90 kb/d in February to 30.22 mb/d, as losses in Libya and
Iraq offset higher supply from Saudi Arabia, Iran and Angola. A slightly higher demand forecast has raised the 2H15
'call' on OPEC crude to 30.3 mb/d, above the group's official 30 mb/d target. Global crude refinery throughputs
estimates have been raised to 77.8 mb/d for 1Q15 and 77.3 mb/d for 2Q15, on sustained high margins and a slightly
more robust oil demand outlook. Annual gains are forecast around 1.0 mb/d in 1H15, down from a sharp 2.2 mb/d in
4Q14, and in line with projected oil product demand growth. OECD commercial stocks rose by a weaker-than-average
23.1 mb in January, to 2 733 mb, trimming their surplus to average levels to 60.3 mb. US crude stocks rose to a record
72 mb surplus. Preliminary data show stocks drew by a weak 8.8 mb in February as extended US crude builds offset
steep weather-related product draws.
Per the latest U.S. Energy Information
Administration’s “Short-Term Energy
Outlook”, North Sea Brent crude oil spot prices
increased by $10/bbl from January to reach an
average of $58/bbl in February, the first month
in which Brent prices increased since June
2014. Several factors supported Brent prices in
February, including news of falling U.S. crude
oil rig counts and announced reductions in
capital expenditures by major oil companies,
both of which contributed to expectations that
oil supplies could decline more quickly than
previous market expectations. Additionally,
lower-thanexpected Iraqi
crude oil exports
and a reduction in Libyan production contributed to an increase in global unplanned supply
disruptions. However, the sustainability of the recent price increase is very uncertain, as it
occurred amid strong global oil inventory growth, which is expected to continue in the
coming months. Inventory builds are projected to moderate later in the year and provide
support to crude oil prices. The monthly average WTI crude oil spot price increased to an
average of $51/bbl in February, up $3/bbl from January. WTI prices increased less than
Brent prices in February as U.S. commercial crude oil inventories increased to 444 million
barrels as of February 27, an increase of over 50 million barrels since the end of 2014.
The record inventory levels have put downward pressure on the price of crude oil for
prompt delivery relative to the price of crude oil for delivery in the future. Meanwhile I do
not mind topping off my tank every time I pull into the gas station.
